Our search for very distinctive fabrics has led us to some selections that you won't find everywhere: on the one hand, we have used natural homespun cottons made without formaldehydes or chemicals that make up into beautifully hanging, washable draperies. On the other hand, we were delighted to find a supplier of sumptuous silks at half the usual cost, making this exquisite material affordable to more people.

There is so much variety in fabrics-in colors, textures, and patterns –that no two people ever come up with the same choice. We also know the importance of the right accessories. We carry a wider than usual selection of drapery hardware, from sleek European styles to hand-carved wood designs. Similarly, we can, if you like, help you find the perfect trim to finish off your creation. We have so many to choose from, including a unique collection from South Africa. The really fun part of this business is helping you come up with exactly the right fabric and window treatment design that expresses to yourself who you are.

Fabric window treatments have practical as well as expressive functions. They add warmth to any room, both physical warmth by insulating from the cold, and emotional warmth by softening hard edges and straight lines. They make a space less stressful by dampening sound reverberations. When made into operating draperies or shades, they control light and provide privacy.
