Frequently Asked Questions
Is the texture noticeable from a distance?
Yes, the raised bands read clearly from across a room, and up close you see the individual cords. It works at both distances, which not every textured shade manages.
What size table does it suit?
A four to six seat table or a round dining table. Aim for a shade roughly half the table width and this sits comfortably in that range.
How high should it hang?
About thirty inches above the tabletop. That puts the texture at eye level for seated guests while keeping sightlines across the table clear.
Does light escape through the cording?
A warm amount comes through the fabric, with the main output going down through the open base. The combination is what gives the room its atmosphere.
How do I clean corded cotton?
Vacuum on a low setting with a soft brush, running along the ridges. Keep it dry, since water marks cotton permanently.
