Bamboo Shades
Do you know that window shades have been in use since the time of ancient Egypt? Pharaohs had been said to have used window blinds made of reeds to protect themselves against the glare of the Egyptian. This original function of window blinds – protection against sunlight – has taken in many add-ons. Nowadays, window blinds are used for various reasons, one of which is for visual appeal.
Currently, there is a growing popularity of Asian-inspired home architecture and décor. And this is because of the aesthetic appeal of indigenous materials and motifs artistically utilized in Asian architecture and furnishings. Asian hardwoods such as teak and mahogany and the versatile bamboo are rarely absent in the overall designs of furniture and architecture. Bamboo shades can exude charm from the inside as well as outside your home. And they’re not only meant for Asian-inspired interiors; they can be partnered with any kind of furnishings.
Bamboo shades is a term loosely used to refer to other window blinds products that are made from natural materials such as hemp, jutes, reeds, and grass. And do you know that bamboo is a grass?
