I paired these in my study with some floral drapes in gold and the pattern (definite pattern of vertical and horizontal stripes as I read in other reviews) makes this window treatment pop and look like a designer window. So very gorgeous and rich and textured. Very high quality, easily hung by me in minutes, I'm so very pleased and have never had windows so pretty for such little investment. I highly recommend and do not mean to say the pattern is too evident, I just wanted to let others know that it just provides great interest, depth and richness. Awesome!!!! Also, it is a true Roman shade, not a roll up and it was kind of hard to realize that the descriptions for some blinds said they were Roman, but were actually roll up. Also, it lets it some light but filters all I needed (to thwart the bright morning sun on my monitor) and while it will show silhouettes in the night time if someone were really close and looking, it provides a great deal of privacy and is perfect for any home without neighbors five feet away. Super quick shipping, Great Offer Stock is amazing!
