Woven wood shades boast a storied heritage that traces back to ancient civilizations, where natural elements were used to provide protection and privacy. Originating in places like Egypt and China, these shades were initially simple, functional designs made from locally-sourced materials to shield against the sun while allowing air circulation.

As their use spread through Asia and the Pacific Islands, local materials were adapted to craft shades suitable for the humid climates of these regions, using durable and ventilative materials like rattan and jute.

The modern resurgence of these eco-friendly window coverings in the West, particularly from the late 20th century onwards, highlights a growing preference for sustainable home décor. Today’s woven wood shades marry traditional weaving techniques with contemporary enhancements, such as motorized lifting systems, making them a testament to enduring craftsmanship and sustainable living.
