Bamboo blinds are also called woven wood or matchstick shades. Bamboo blinds are made of natural materials like wood and fiber. The best horizontal wood shades are made from natural hardwoods, and are very good natural insulators. These woven woods can be raised and lowered like a cellular shade. Bamboo blinds give you a variety of options to express your personal style, including valances, decorative trims and finishes, privacy liner and the top down or bottom up options. We recommend that you avoid using genuine wood shades in humid conditions. Bamboo blinds add a special touch of warmth and rich, natural beauty to any rooms.
