What is a Woven Shade?
There are many types of shades out there. Since we all have different tastes when it comes to our home’s aesthetic and functional needs, having a lot of options is a good thing. However, when you start diving into the world of window treatments, the names of these different types of window treatments might fly by you like comments. That is, it can feel a little overwhelming at times.
For example, you might have heard of woven shades while searching for window treatments for your home. This probably prompted you to ask, “What is a woven shade?

Read on to discover if woven shades are a good fit for your home.
Defining Woven Shades
So, what are woven shades? Often coined woven wood shades, these window treatments are a gorgeous way to add some texture and organic beauty to your home. Woven shades are often made from Bambu, jute, Raton, or natural grasses that are woven into a material with natural variation and gorgeous, rich texture for a window treatment that will catch the eye of anyone who sees it.
Since these window treatments take inspiration from nature around us, they effortlessly pair with a variety of home styles. Whether you have them on their own or combine them with layering, these shades elevate your room, allowing the sun to glow beautifully for the perfect lighting throughout the day.
