Which fabric should you choose for your folding curtains?
Why is linen a perfect material for roman blinds? Should your roman blinds be lined or unlined? and should you choose a chain or cord pull?
-
Fine white linen
100% linen in the fine classic weave that characterizes linen. The curtain screens out the dark/light, but you will still have some privacy. If you want a more opaque curtain, we recommend ordering with lining.
-
Coarse white linen
100% Linen here, the classic weave is more pronounced and less uniform than the fine linen. The curtain screens out the dark/light, but you will still have some privacy. If you want a more opaque curtain, we recommend ordering with lining.
-
Unbleached natural linen
The classic weave that characterizes linen is beautifully expressed here in the unbleached linen. The curtain screens out the dark/light, but you will still have a partial view. If you want a more opaque curtain, we recommend ordering with lining.
If you're ordering curtains for the same room several times, please note that linen is a natural material and the shades may vary slightly from fabric roll to fabric roll.
Roman blinds with lining
Do you want the curtain to be thin and transparent or do you want to keep out all views? All our folding curtains can be ordered with 2 types of lining: regular or blackout.
Plain lined folding curtain
For those who want a curtain with less translucency. It will also be a curtain that falls more heavily in the folds and has a more refined look.
Ordinary lining provides approx. 50% less light
The picture shows the light penetration of roman blinds with and without the regular lining.
Blackout lined folding curtain
Roman blinds with blackout are perfect for bedrooms where you want to keep out as much light as possible.
We have blackout linings in beige and white. If you choose a blackout blind, the linen structure is heavily dimmed as no light escapes through the fabric.
Blackout lining reduces light penetration by approximately 98%.
Be aware that a tiny bit of light comes through the stitching where the ribbons are sewn on.
Kædetræk eller snoretræk?
Chain pull or cord pull is a matter of preference. Cord pull is the most affordable option and works perfectly fine. Chain pull is a bit more expensive but is great for heavier roman blinds.

Roman blind with chain pull
Shop roman blinds with chain pullFoldegardiner med kædetræk har en kæde frem for en snor til at regulere gardinet med. Fordelen ved at vælge gardiner med kædetræk er, at kæden altid har den samme længde, uanset hvor højt eller lavt gardinet er.
For large and therefore heavy roman blinds, it will be easier to raise them. The chain can be selected in white, black, gray, or brass.
-
Roman blind with cord pull
Shop foldegardin med snoretrækWith roman blinds that have a cord pull, a cord is used to raise and lower the blind. The advantage of choosing cord pull is that the cord is relatively discreet.
The disadvantage is that the cord follows the blind. This means that the cord is short when the blind is unfolded and long when the blind is folded up.
-
Metal chain pull

Top plead
A top plead “hides” the seams at the top of the curtain. There’s no extra charge.
You can choose whether you want a top plead during the ordering process.
