Blinds Chalet's most affordable roman shade combines style and ease of care

The Asante line of roman shades available from Blinds Chalet combines the advantage of light-filtering fabric with ease of care.

The shades are made from 100 percent premium woven fabrics that are soil and dust resistant. A patented operating system also ensures that the Assante style will provide long-term operation without wear and tear.

Assante shades are the most affordable among Blinds Chalet's roman shade selection. They are available in white, several shades of off-white and tan, as well as deep green and burgundy. When consumers order a free sample to help them choose the right color, each sample is accompanied by a discount coupon for added savings.

Some of the features include a 6-inch fabric valance at no additional charge and energy-efficient fabric that blocks ultraviolet rays when closed. The cord lock mechanism comes with a tassel for a decorative look.

"Roman shades are beautifully hobbled to give you a 'tear drop' look on your windows," according to the company's website. "Light filtering roman shades allow a soft ambient light to enter your home and still give you total privacy."
