Choosing the Perfect Real Wood : Styles, Finishes, and Features
Navigate the world of Real Wood with Vrishkar Blinds' guide to styles, finishes, slat sizes, and additional features to find your ideal match.
Introduction: Finding Your Ideal Real Wood
Selecting the perfect Real Wood for your UK home involves more than just choosing a material. At Vrishkar Blinds, we offer a diverse range of styles, finishes, slat sizes, and features to ensure you find the ideal window treatment to complement your taste and functional needs. This guide will walk you through the key considerations when choosing your Real Wood .
Understanding Different Styles of Real Wood
- **Horizontal Real Wood :** The most classic and versatile style, featuring horizontal slats that can be tilted for light and privacy control. Available in various slat widths to suit different window sizes and aesthetic preferences.
- **Vertical Real Wood :** An excellent choice for larger windows and patio doors. Vertical slats can be drawn to the side and tilted for light control, offering a different visual appeal than horizontal blinds.
- **Plantation Shutters (Wooden):** While technically shutters, wooden plantation shutters offer a similar aesthetic and functionality to wide-slat Real Wood . They provide a more permanent and architectural feel.
Exploring Wood Types and Finishes
The type of wood and its finish significantly impact the look and feel of your Real Wood . Consider these options:
- **Natural Wood Finishes:** These finishes highlight the inherent beauty of the wood grain, often with a clear varnish or sealant to protect the timber. Options include oak, maple, basswood, and more.
- **Painted Finishes:** Real Wood can be painted in a wide array of colours to match your specific décor. Popular choices include whites, creams, greys, and even bolder statement colours.
- **Stained Finishes:** Stains enhance the wood's natural tone while adding depth and richness. Options range from light and airy to dark and dramatic.
The Impact of Slat Size
The width of the slats on your Real Wood can affect both the appearance and the amount of light and view when open:
- **Narrow Slats (e.g., 25mm, 35mm):** Offer a more traditional look with more slats per window. When open, they provide a more obstructed view.
- **Medium Slats (e.g., 50mm):** A popular choice that balances a classic aesthetic with a good view-through when open.
- **Wide Slats (e.g., 63mm, 76mm):** Provide a more contemporary and open feel, offering a less obstructed view when raised or tilted.
Considering Additional Features
Enhance the functionality and style of your Real Wood with these features:
- **Cordless Operation:** A safer option for homes with children and pets, offering a clean and uncluttered look.
- **Decorative Tapes:** Fabric tapes that cover the lift cords and add a decorative element to your blinds, available in various colours and patterns.
- **Motorisation:** For ultimate convenience, consider motorised Real Wood that can be controlled with a remote or smart home system.
