Veri Shades: The Best of Both Worlds
Veri-shades are a unique and innovative addition to the market of window furnishings and are the perfect mix of curtains and blinds. They are known for combining options that homeowners often find difficult to choose between: the sophistication and freedom of curtains, and the versatility and durability of blinds. Available in a variety of drop lengths and sizes, veri-shades are fully customisable and make the perfect addition to any home. We understand that it can be a struggle to decide which window furnishing option is the best for your lifestyle. There are so many options to consider when choosing something you use in your home every day: ease of use, aesthetics, ease of care and maintenance, as well as the practical application.
What makes Veri-shades stand out is just how simple they are to use. You can draw them across like regular curtains or twist the wand to alternate between sheer and opaque panels—giving you full control of light and privacy throughout the day. Unlike traditional vertical blinds, Veri-shades don’t have chains or weights, so they move freely and quietly—even if there’s a breeze or someone walks through them.
Style, Function & Versatility
Veri Shade blinds address all of these considerations and more with:
- Child and Pet Friendly: boasting a cordless system for optimum safety
- Functional and Versatile: Choose the opacity of the fabric easily by twisting the wand
- Stylish and Elegant: For an effortlessly chic interior with individual curved fabric folds
- High Quality Fabrics: Made from pure polyester with a 50+ UV protection factor
- Extensive Options: Wide variety of fabric and track colours and sizes
- Easy to Operate: Use your Veri Shades with just one single twist wand
- Silence: No weights, chains or chords. Simply soft fabric that is silent despite the wind
- Stress-free Maintenance: Easy care fabric that is resistant to staining and fading
- Motorised Option: Automate your home for ultimate luxury
How Do They Work?
Suitable for any home or office location, Veri Shades mean that you don’t have to choose a single option: sheer and soft like curtains, or versatile and light blocking like blinds. They boast the shape of blinds, along with the flexibility and option to draw them back. But they also offer the style and ease of curtains, with no weights or chords and the ability to walk right through them. The folds in the fabric are incredibly light and alternately positioned, so that you can switch between both opaque and translucent options.
Ultimate Privacy & Light Blocking
Using Veri Shades is simple:
Turn the wand one way, and the opaque fabric allows for ultimate privacy and light blocking. Turn the wand the opposite way and let the light into your home with the mesh fabric. Offering ultimate flexibility, you can even have the folds open halfway for filtered light, or have them drawn fully back to offer full sunlight.
Wide Range of Options:
Offering a wide range of options, Veri Shades will undoubtedly have a colour or style option that is suited to your home or office décor. Carefully selected by interior design specialists, they come in a range of 20 colours, from white and off-white to neutrals and greys, right through to deep blacks. There are four different track designs, including round and flat styles, as well as five different colour options.
What are Veri-shades, and how are they different from vertical blinds?
Veri-shades are a hybrid window furnishing that blends the appearance of curtains with the operation of vertical blinds. They consist of individual fabric folds suspended from a track system. Unlike vertical blinds, they have no chains or weights, making them quieter and easier to walk through. You can rotate the folds to switch between light-filtering and room-darkening modes, offering versatility in both light control and style.
Are Veri-shades suitable for large windows and sliding doors?
Yes, Veri-shades are ideal for wide openings like sliding doors, bifolds and large windows. Their flowing fabric design allows easy movement and access through doorways without needing to open or close the entire shade. Because they’re made from lightweight fabric, they glide effortlessly and can cover large spans without sagging. They’re also more child- and pet-friendly than traditional vertical blinds.
Do Veri-shades block out light completely?
Veri-shades do not offer complete blockout like heavy curtains or blackout roller blinds. However, they allow good control over light and privacy thanks to their dual-mode fabric design. By twisting the wand, you can alternate between sheer panels that let in soft daylight and opaque panels that filter light and increase privacy. For bedrooms or media rooms, they can be combined with additional window coverings to achieve full darkness.
