Explore Innovative Woven Window Shades

As far back as the Bronze Age, ancient peoples like the dynastic Egyptians and Chinese cultures used tied-together reeds and bamboo strips to cover their window openings. Today’s innovative woven window shades are rooted in that aesthetic but with much more modern sensibilities—providing homeowners with essential practicality, and a luxurious, organic style.

At Rebarts Blinds & Shades, our line-up features stunning woven Hunter Douglas window treatments, and our design experts love sharing the details with California businesses and homeowners.

Let’s start with a popular selection: Roller shades made from natural fibers. One of our favorite options are Alustra® Woven Textures® Roller Shades, a study in contrasts—a woven wood shade with the performance of a roller shade, but made with natural materials sourced by Hunter Douglas.

Understated and elegant, these woven roller shades feature globally sourced fabrics, 70+ color choices, and varying opacity levels.

Hunter Douglas can enhance this style, adding a light-filtering or room-darkening liner to a rear shade on the same roller. You can upgrade these woven shades with the Duolite® system or our Dual Roller design for added light control and privacy.

Similar to the roller shades just described, Alustra® Architectural Roller Shades have the look of a Roman shade and the performance of a roller shade. We are proud to offer more than 40 fabric/color selections. The dynamic difference is that the fabric-covered contoured battens and front-rolling fabrics offer a twist toward structured lines and an elevated, modern vibe.

Alustra® Woven Textures® Roman Shades introduce a tailored approach to design-inspired fabric window treatments. Unlike roller shades, these have soft folds that stack evenly when raised. This sophisticated style adds a bit more depth to this window covering.

Since the fabrics fold rather than roll, these Roman shades add softness with a textured aesthetic. You can add light-filtering and room-darkening options, top and bottom treatments, and select different opacities. There’s also a Top-Down/Bottom-Up design.

Hunter Douglas woven wood shades feature sustainably sourced materials by artisanal weavers. Provenance® Woven Wood shades are beautifully crafted from reeds, grasses, bamboo, and other natural sources, so no two are exactly the same. Depending on the style, these window treatments offer different control options:

• PowerView® Automation: A motorized window treatment system that allows you to move Hunter Douglas window treatments with a remote, app, or voice commands.
• LiteRise®: This system lets you operate your window treatment by pushing up or pulling down with your hand.
• UltraGlide®: This retractable corded system remains a constant length when raising and lowering your window treatments.
• EasyRise™: Opens and closes larger shades in a continuous cord loop.
