Shade Styles from Hartmann & Forbes
Hartmann & Forbes offers a diverse range of woven shades to suit any taste, blending timeless aesthetics with innovative functionality. Explore a few of the standout styles offered by Hartmann & Forbes below.
Old Style Roman Shades
A modern classic, this Roman shade style is simple and clean, with the shade fabric falling off the front of the headrail. The operating mechanism is located behind the shade fabric, providing a seamless appearance. This design highlights the intricate textures of the fabric, making it an excellent choice for those looking to add subtle sophistication to their interiors.
Sudare Style Shades
A fresh interpretation of a classical Japanese style, this shade blends modern Roman-fold operation with a hand-sewn decorative bamboo-fabric binding, adding an artisanal touch to any room. The Sudare style showcases the beauty of natural bamboo in a way that feels both traditional and contemporary, offering a versatile solution for a variety of design schemes.
Rollerfold Style Shades
This innovative style combines the aesthetic beauty of a Roman-fold shade with the sleek performance and child safety features of a roller shade. The Rollerfold eliminates shade-body operational cords yet mimics the look of a Roman shade. Its compact design and smooth operation make it a practical and stylish option for busy households or modern spaces with a minimalist aesthetic.
Each style is available in a range of colors, weaves, and finishes, allowing you to customize the look and functionality to perfectly match your vision for your home.
