 | Edge Binding
Edge Binding are cloth tapes that are wrapped on the edge of the shades to help prevent fraying as well as adding an elegant look to the shades. Our standard edge binding is 2" wide with approximately 1" of fabric showing on each side of the shades.

 | Blackout Liner
Add additional privacy and block the light by adding this upgrade to your shades.
Our standard blackout liners offered in white. |
 | Moveable Roman Liner
Raise and lower the privacy or blackout liner without raising your shades. When raised, this roman style liner allows light to filter through the shades but blocks light and gives privacy when lowered. Shade will come with a separate lift cord on the opposite side of the shades to operate the liner. |
 | Privacy Liner
Add additional privacy and light blockage to your shades by adding this upgrade to your shades.
Tavarua shades come with natural color privacy liner. All other woven wood shades offer a white liner. |
 | Rollease/Continuous Cord
With the use of a clutch system and continuous pull, larger blinds are easier to lift. |
 | Top Down-Bottom Up
Lower the shades from the top or raise them from the bottom. This option allows you to do either or both at the same time. Lower your shades from the top allowing for privacy while the shades are partially open. Two separate cords on opposite sides of the shade. Lift cord on the right and the top down cord on the left. |

I have only just seen the blinds and they are very attractive. The rollease thing is terrific; actually wish now I'd gotten them on every blind. The top flaps covering the blind roller and hardware are a little bit cheap looking - skimpy - but not terrible in any way.
The delivery was another story. Blinds were shipped to an address in Boston and arrived in the morning on a Thursday, 2 weeks and 2 days after ordering. I checked online, saw this, and assumed this was a temporary pause at a central collection station and that they would be in Nantucket the next day or Saturday at the worst. Then I checked again on Sunday to see when they arrived. THEY HAD NOT EVEN LEFT BOSTON. They were just sitting there! DHL, had some pretty lame excuses and acknowledged that they had the proper final delivery address for Nantucket, MA and that they'd get it there by Monday. Long story made short, (and after another phone call to them on Monday to ask why they were still sitting in the warehouse according to tracking) the blinds finally arrived in Nantucket on Monday night, 2 days after the tenants arrived and 3 weeks after ordering.
One truly appalling aspect of working with DHL, was that they even reworked their online tracking reports - after my phone to them on Sunday - to say that they had tried delivering the shades on Thursday, but that no one was home. So I will never recommend or use DHL myself, since this is just bad business practice!
Another frustration in this was that my email to Blinds Chalet on that Sunday, about the situation, with a request for help, seemed to have been lost. So Blinds Chalet did not respond. When I called them on Monday to enlist their help, they were sort of helpful, but could only leave it in DHL's hands. Afterwards, when I asked for a partial refund for all my troubles, they offered to refund only their "handling" fee of $5.95, saying customers are not charged for shipping. (I assume that the cost of shipping is built into the blinds cost) I said $5.95 wouldn't even cover the phone calls from Italy to get this delivery job done. Blind Chalet's position: that this is on DHL.
The only reason to go back to Blinds Chalet is to make sure any additional blinds match the original ones. But the shipping, if you have any kind of time frame crunch, can be a real nightmare, as my experience was.Katharine Old Saybrook , CT The order arrived within the time frame promised.

The order arrived within the time frame promised. The product itself is TOP QUALITY - the materials, construction and hardware materials are superior to anything we could have purchased locally. We also found that the BINDING COLORS, as displayed on the web site are very accurate. The measurements were perfect. Thank you!I love the blind.
