Woven wood shades consist of woods, reeds, or grasses hand-woven or machine fashioned together with a simple, traditional appearance in mind. The charm of true hand-woven shades is their exotic and slightly “imperfect” appearance—a welcome byproduct of natural materials fashioned by the human hand. Machine fashioned alternatives provide a more consistent and “polished” finished product.

Woven wood shades are an excellent, natural window covering most commonly used to complement a particular design style or preference. The light control and privacy capabilities of woven woods are usually secondary to the aesthetic intent of the product, but the functionality can be augmented with the addition of fabric backings.

Why do people like woven wood shades?

Woven wood shades provide an earthy look highly conducive to specific design styles. Although they tend to be construed as fitting a “lifestyle” type of design aesthetic, they provide an interesting option for integration into contemporary and slightly eclectic design styles as well.
