Woven Wood Shades

Woven wood shades are a great way to infuse texture and warmth—along with a natural, organic aesthetic—into a space. And they’re extremely versatile, working well for a variety of design styles, from coastal and traditional to boho and Scandinavian. Thinking about adding woven wood shades to your home? While you can find them at your local big box store, you’ll have a better experience if you opt for custom shades. Custom-made shades are crafted to your window’s specific measurements, meaning they’ll fit your window perfectly. You’ll also be able to choose from varied materials, enhancements such as edge banding and liners, and from different control options—all of which you may not find in mass-produced shades.

Materials and Colors

Woven wood shades are crafted from natural materials, including wood, reeds, grasses and bamboo. You’ll find that they come in a wide variety of colors and textured fabrics, as well as more refined weaves. 

You’ll also find woven woods in different styles, including Roman, waterfall Roman and vertical drapery, making them a great selection to complement any room in your home.

Enhancements and Specialty Shapes

Because the tightness of the weave varies depending on the materials used, woven woods offer varying levels of privacy and light control. You can add a liner, though, for those rooms where you’d like less light filtering and more privacy, such as a bedroom.  

Want a little flair? Add an edge banding, which gives woven wood shades more definition and pop.    

Another bonus of custom-made woven woods is that they’re available for specialty shapes, such as angled and bay windows, as well as sliding-glass and patio doors.

Control Options

You can choose from a host of manual options for opening and closing custom-made woven wood shades, from simply pulling up and pushing down on the bottom rail to wand control (for vertical drapery styles).

You can also add some smarts to your shades, for added comfort and convenience. Opt for automated shades, and you can easily control your shades with a remote, tap on your mobile device, automatically through set schedules you create—or even with your favorite voice assistant.
