Roman shades date back to the time of the Roman Empire and, in basic operating premise, remain unchanged since that time. Typically consisting of a layer of fabric attached to a headrail and lowered and raised in much the same manner as a blind, Roman shades distinguish themselves with their versatility; ranging from quite simple to highly ornate.

By virtue of fabric comprising the main element of their make-up, Roman shades also afford a much broader array of ornamental options and variations with respect to “construction” or outward appearance (beyond the fabric itself).

The Blinds Connection has access to a variety of “ready-to-order” Roman shades as well as access to designer fabrics and workroom capabilities for custom-made options.

Why do people like Roman shades?

Roman shades combine the appearance of soft treatments with the functionality of blinds. Although they draw heavily from both, Roman shades have neither the appearance of blinds, nor the bulkiness or feeling of curtains—points which provide them with their distinction and their source of appeal.
