Stylish Zebra Shades (Custom Banded Shades)
Zebra shades (or Zebra Blinds) create a striking, dimensional look using layers of opaque and transparent vanes to control light in unique ways. These shades feature horizontal vanes that stack on top of each other. When closed, the alternating materials form the classic zebra stripe pattern that gives these shades their name.
Zebra shades slide smoothly along tracks allowing you to shift the layered vanes from side to side. This adjusts how much exterior light filters into the room. You can position the vanes to allow some visibility outside or stack them tightly for increased privacy. The transparent vanes work to softly diffuse harsh sunlight.
Zebra Shades, also known as custom banded shades or zebra blinds, have become very popular in recent years.
