Why We’re Sew Into 'Orrius': Its slow progression of color that lends a movement and liveliness to the decor Its varied shades of white and bluish green that can narrate the color story of maritime themes Its ability to anchor the space on a casual note with its lighthearted design There’s a reason why ombres will never go out of style. Whether presented in a single color or a kaleidoscope of hues - moving from dark to light or vice versa - ombres showcase an artistic technique that’s both stunning and simple at the same time. Our fabric Orrius is the perfect embodiment of this effect featuring gradual shades of pale green moving into deep seafoam green. This stunner is its own ombre rainbow that will make your window treatments the indisputable stars of the show. HomeSewn Wisdom: Consider the minimised look: Ombre's full progression of hues can only be visible when the roman blind is folded down to its full stretch. When folded up, you can see the top white portion and a short gather of the gradient color. Factor in this aspect when you check for color-cohesiveness between 'Orrius' blinds and the room's overall palette. Dress right with a suitable fold style: Opt for the European relaxed style whose cascading folds and scalloped bottom will pitch your roman blinds on a relaxed note fitting for coastal/nautical decor. Opt for curtains: If you’re dressing windows wider than 96 inches, try Orrius curtains as a stylish alternative to roman shades. Drapery’s generous dimensions and flowy trails are particularly well suited to wider spans, creating a balanced and refined look. Start with a sample: Screens may lie; swatches don’t. Since colors in images can vary on different screens, ordering a sample of Orrius is highly advisable. This will allow you to see the colors upclose, and check how the fabric feels to the touch. Complement with matching accessories: For a custom designer look, coordinate your roman shades with other textile accessories in the room. Order matching runners, table covers or cushion covers from us, or buy Orrius fabric by the yard to create any matching fabric accessory of your choice. The Nitty-Gritty (Made Pretty): Our roman shades arrive with all necessary hardware, so you can skip that last-minute store dash. We include cord lock anchors for child and pet safety, because style should never come at the cost of safety. Each roman shade at Sewn is handcrafted by skilled artisans from India who pour care, precision and decades of experience into every stitch.
