Silhouette (Sheer) Shades

Featuring the Signature S-Vanes™, Hunter Douglas Silhouette® window shadings transform light. Exquisite fabric vanes suspended between two sheers gives the style and beauty of a shade with the light control of a horizontal blind. Open the semi-opaque fabric vanes, and watch your room fill with a warm, brilliant glow. Slightly tilted and the light and view are further subdued. Closed, they provide elegant privacy without total darkness. OR, select a room darkening pattern to meet your required level of privacy. Fully raised, they are hidden behind the integral valance headrail. With more colors, textures, and fabrics to choose from than ever before, there are an infinite number of ways to create your own signature look from traditional to modern and anywhere in between. Available in 2”, 3” and the Quartette® 4” vane size. Some specialty shapes can be created depending on overall size.

Control options include; “Literise” (cordless) OR “Ultraglide” (retractable wand) features which are by far the most child safe options for any window covering type. Another option is the NEW SoftTouch™ Motorization system which is a unique battery-powered operating system with simple and intuitive wand-controlled operation. The PowerView® Motorization system is of course the ultimate choice for control of your shades by way of remotes, wall switches, smart phones and home automation systems. This system is also compatible with Amazon Alexa & Google Home platforms which allow you to synchronize & schedule your shades to move automatically with the Powerview app.
