Pick how much light you want.
Two fabrics, each in a few colours. We bring all of them to your door.
Light filtering
Some lightSerene softens the light, with a hazy view out. Closed, the vanes overlap, with a little light between them near the bottom.
Room darkening
Little lightVelora darkens the room through each vane. The vanes overlap without sealing, so a little light shows between them.
Vanes are the separate strips of fabric that hang from the track.
Track and wand
The track and the wand are white. You can add a cover at the top. It comes colour-matched to your fabric, or in white, arctic white, ivory, grey, brown or black.
- White
What you can choose.
Picture, name and what it does. We bring samples of all of them.
By hand or motorized
Both hang from a white track, and you can walk through either one. See all our motorized choices.

MotorizedA rechargeable motor. It slides one way, or opens from the middle.
Its own remoteA remote made for the Dream shade. You charge the motor with a USB charger.
The top
The white track can stay bare. It looks cleanest fixed to the ceiling. On hand-operated shades, a cover can go over it.

Common questions about vertical sheer shades
Something else? Call 647-300-1033. We are happy to talk it through.
Can I really walk through it?
Yes. The vanes are separate, so they part as you walk through and fall back into place.
Does it block the view?
Closed, the vanes overlap and block the view. A little light shows between them, mostly near the bottom.
Can it cover a very wide patio door?
Yes. Motorized, one Dream shade can span a very wide opening and open from the middle. By hand, very wide doors get two shades side by side.
How is the motor powered?
It is rechargeable. You charge it with a USB charger now and then, so there is nothing to wire.
What are the vanes made of?
Both fabrics, Serene and Velora, are 100% polyester. The track and the wand are white.
Is the consultation free?
Yes. The in-home consultation is free, with no obligation. Measuring and installation are quoted with your order.
