Wood blinds consist of horizontal wood slats that can be tilted open or close
for light control and privacy. Like fine furniture, wood blinds add a special
touch of warmth and rich, natural beauty to any room. Wood blinds are available
in 1-inch, 2-inch, 2 5/8-inch and 3-inch wide slat sizes, in a full range of
finishes, from stains and paints to a rougher sandblasted finish. The 1-inch
slats create a busy look, limiting your view to the outside. Based upon your
specific situation though, you may need a 1-inch slat size. Wood blinds made
with 2-inch wide slats provide a traditional look and are the most popular of
the widths available. The 2 5/8-inch and the wider 3-inch slats provide a
shutter look and offer a less obstructed view to the outside; because the slats
are wider, it takes fewer slats to construct the blind and thus the slats rest
farther apart.
Wood blinds are constructed out of two different types of wood 1) American hardwood and 2) Ramin wood. Wood blinds are durable, naturally insulating and easy to maintain.
