Traditional roller shades have been reborn. They are still made of flat fabric that winds around a roller, but now, you can choose from fabrics that suit today's relaxed, elegant, and casual lifestyles. From high-tech mesh to rich watermarked woven fabric, there's a look that will appeal to your sense of style and fun. Not only have the fabrics changed, so have the mechanisms. Instead of bulky spring-loaded hardware, today's roller shades feature a smooth-operating clutch mechanism controlled by a continuous-cord loop. They are also easier to maintain and more durable than the shades you may remember.
