Blinds

Wood Blinds are precision-cut from the highest quality basswood and hardwoods, offering a finely grained, extremely stable, and lightweight design. Ideal for homeowners seeking the solid appearance and warmth of real hardwoods paired with the functional benefits of horizontal blinds. Superior quality and attention to detail have made solid basswood blinds the best-selling wood blinds in America.

These blinds feature UV inhibitors to resist fading and yellowing, a trapezoid bottom rail for tighter closure enhancing privacy and light control, and decorative fabric tapes that add color accents while concealing route holes for improved light control.
