Timeless Austrian Curtains

Austrian curtains are one of the oldest window shades.  Dating back to as early as the 18th century, Austrian curtains also known as festoon blinds, have graced the home of royals for centuries.  The style of shade became increasing popular, and can even be found in popular Victorian style homes.
The shade is best know for its semicircular folds are festoons from the bottom up.  When raised the folds become even more pronounced and full.  This shade works best in soft sheer fabrics.  Most popularly made in sheer voile, batiste, and even really sheer linen fabric.

We offer an upscale version of the Austrian curtain.  Our sheer Austrian is made from designer sheer voile fabric.  Four times the window length is included in our shade to ensure extreme fullness.  This creates privacy but still allows light to filter in.  The shade can be made in custom widths of up to 103" and custom lengths of up to 120".  Visit us today to view all of our custom roman shades.
