Five Reasons Why You Should Choose Venetian Blinds

Why would you want to invest in quality Venetian blinds? Well, we’ve come up with five reasons and we’re going to look at them in this latest blog. We know that Venetian blinds are the perfect window coverage because they’re so stylish and elegant. They originated in Persia (now Iran), disappeared out of favour for a while and then returned to Europe where they were introduced as Venetian blinds. They were called this because the traders who sold them were from Venice (which makes sense). By the 18th century they were a real hit and they’ve never been out of fashion since. 

1.Venetian blinds are so stylish

Style is the number one thing. At Knightshades we can confirm how gorgeously stylish they are because we have enough satisfied customers who’ve told us this after purchase. We’ve seen how happy they are with their blinds so we know what we’re talking about. If you’re looking to give your room a bit of oomph and you’d like your window coverage to blend in with the rest of the room, then why not tie all of it together e.g. the colours, the style, the textures and the patterns with a set of venetian blinds? Your room will never look cluttered, instead it’ll have a beautiful minimalist elegant feel, whilst cleverly supporting a classically decorated room.

2 Quality is our trademark

All our blinds are of a superior quality, otherwise we wouldn’t sell them. We’ve followed the times and now only sell cordless blinds, those with a wand or remote control so they can be opened or closed without causing an accident, especially around young children or family pets. Our Venetians come in a variety of strong and durable materials such as aluminium, plastic (uPVC) or wood. Wood is great for most rooms, but in a room where there’s lots of moisture (eg a bathroom) you’ll probably want something that won’t warp or crack and that would be aluminium or plastic. 

3 Our blinds won’t break the bank

You might be surprised to know that Venetian blinds are reasonably priced and can be cheaper than window shutters or heavy curtains or drapes. They’re easy enough to install, so if you opt for this option, you shouldn’t have any problems, or you can let us do it for you as we provide this as part of our overall service. They also last a long time, so you’ll get your money back in the long run. 

4 Effective light and insulation

Venetian blinds provide effective protection from light when you need it, giving you far more control than you’d get from traditional curtains. They can also keep your room cool in summer and warm in winter, providing great insulation from all temperatures. 

5 Your privacy is important

Venetian blinds provide excellent privacy so you if you live on a busy street or overlook a road, or even if you have nosy neighbours, then you can shut everything out with your blinds. Just one swift pull of the cord or wand or one tantalising touch of a button and you’re done with the outside world – on your terms.
