Wood Blinds Are a Timeless and Classic Window Treatment
Traditional styling and rich hardwood slats let wood blinds complement any room. Fashioned to a warm home with a rustic charm, they are available in a variety of colors including oak and cherry wood. Wood blinds have distinctive grain patterns, knots and natural colorization.
Why Would One Consider a Wood Blind Versus a Faux Blind?
First, a wood blind is natural and is very rich looking by its nature. The faux blinds have come a long way and look like a wood blind, but the wood blind does stand out on its own.
In terms of weight, a wood blind is very light in comparison to a faux blind. It’s not to say that you should consider raising and lowering the wood blinds just because they are lighter than a faux wood. In fact, we highly recommend that any 2 inch wood or faux wood blind be in the down position with the slats open or closed. Wood or faux wood blinds just are not meant to be raised and lowered on a regular basis.
A third aspect of the wood blind is simply its durability. It obviously comes from a tree and it is strong in nature and would take a lot to ruin or damage one.
A fourth aspect is the wide range of colors available. Customers can find every assortment of white to an array of stains.
