WHY SHEER SHADES?
- Translucent and light-darkening fabrics are blended with a sheer or mesh fabric, allowing for varying opacity levels depending on the fabric choice.
- When solid bands are shifted, it ensures privacy. When sheet bands are aligned the treatment lets natural light in while offering a diffused view outside.
- Effortless operation and alignment with the innovative fully enclosed bottom rail.
- When raised, the shade disappears inside the headrail allowing for an unobstructed full outdoor view.

Refined Aesthetics with Modern Convenience to Highlight Your Space
Sheer material is perfectly woven as one continuous piece of fabric with no stitches or visible seams and no use of adhesives.
Sheer shades or "dual shades" have the feel of fabric shades but function like vinyl or aluminum blind counterparts.
When closed, the shade disappears into a sleek, fabric-wrapped cassette for a finished look full of sophistication.
Available in 2", 2¾", and 3" vanes to allow for better views and more precise light control.
There are many things to love about sheer shades, but one of the biggest compliments is their softness.
The softness of a material plays a significant role in the quality of light that enters your room. The knitted light filtering fabric encases the interior, making it remarkably plush and soft on the eyes and to the touch. With these high-quality materials, you’ll enjoy unobscured diffused light in every room in your home where the window treatments are installed.
Options! Options! Options!
Sheer shadings were once only available in light colors such as cream, white, and ivory, but today, they are available in almost every color you could imagine. Give your room instant style, and add more mood and dramatic effects by opting for contrasting colors between the shade and accompanying drapery fabrics. The vertical and horizontal shades come with adjustable vanes that can tilt to various angles to diffuse or give you full light in the room while giving you privacy control. Our automated sheers diffuse light and provide UV protection for your furniture and valuables. Ask our designers, and they will show you the world!

ROOM DARKENING SHEER SHADES

Insulating Windows for Winter?
While sheer shades can offer improved control over heat gain and substantial protection against UV rays, this treatment style is not designed to insulate your home against the winter cold.

FAQS

Sheer shades are suitable for any room that requires natural light and some privacy, such as living rooms, bedrooms, and kitchens. They are also ideal for spaces that require a soft, elegant look.
Sheer shades are less energy-efficient than other window treatments, such as cellular shades or blackout curtains. However, they can still help to reduce energy costs by providing natural light and heat control. For maximum energy efficiency, it is recommended to layer sheer shades with other window treatments.
Sheer shades do not provide significant UV protection on their own. However, some sheer shades are available with UV protection technology, which can block up to 99% of UV rays.
Sheer shades can be cleaned with a soft cloth or a vacuum cleaner brush attachment. It is important to avoid using water or cleaning solutions, as they may damage the fabric. For best results, clean the shades regularly to prevent dirt and dust buildup.
Sheer shades offer a unique combination of light control and privacy. They allow natural light to filter through while providing some privacy, making them a versatile window treatment option for many spaces. Additionally, the sheer fabric creates a soft, elegant look that adds sophistication to any room.
No, you can not see through sheer shades at night. When solid bands are shifted, it ensures privacy.

Sheer shades are made of a sheer fabric that allows natural light to filter through while light-filtering shades are made of a thicker fabric that blocks some of the light while still allowing some light to filter through. Light filtering shades provide more privacy than sheer shades but allow some natural light to enter the room.
Dual sheer shades are made of a single fabric with alternating light-filtering and room-darkening solid bands. The bands align to give natural light diffusion or overlap to provide complete privacy. 3 Blind Mice Window creates various fabrics, colors, patterns, and textures.
