Torn between Sheer Curtains and Blinds? Our Australian Made Veri Shades are a Curtain and Blind combined!

In this guide, we’ll explain why more homeowners are adding our made-to-measure Veri Shades to their home, with their walk-through design, easy wand operation for light and privacy control, and their child and pet safe features.

Veri Shades Explained.

Our locally made Veri Shades are a unique window covering that combines the elegance of Sheer Curtains with the practical benefits of Blinds. Often described as the perfect solution for the Sheer Curtains vs Blinds dilemma, they offer both window furnishings in the one product.

With their patented design, our Australian Made Veri Shades allow you to switch seamlessly from translucent to opaque fabric with a simple turn of the wand, providing effortless control over light and privacy. The soft fabric drapes elegantly, is easy to maintain, and adds a refined touch to any room.

Free from cords, weights and chains, they’re also completely child and pet safe, while their clever walk-through design allows you to pass through them whether open or closed — they simply glide aside and fall back into place. Ideal for wide windows and sliding doors, our made-to-measure Veri Shades can span up to six metres.

Whether you’re in Melbourne, Canberra, or elsewhere across Australia, choosing Veri Shades ensures a custom fit, modern design, and lasting quality.

“I was originally planning to get both Sheer Curtains and Blinds, but then my local dc+b store introduced me to Veri Shades, and it completely changed the game! I love that they give me the benefits of both in one product, and the walk-through design is an absolute standout.”

— Kelly, Melbourne

Veri Shades VS Other Window Coverings.

Unlike traditional Curtains and Blinds, our Veri Shades combine the softness of Sheer Curtains with the versatility of Vertical Blinds in one innovative design. They offer the flowing elegance of fabric with the functional control of Blinds.

You can walk through them whether they’re open or closed, and the fabric gently sways back into place. Operation is effortless with a simple wand, allowing smooth control over light and privacy without cords, chains, or weights — creating a child safe home.

Like Sheer Curtains, Veri Shades soften your space and allow beautiful filtered light, while their adjustable fabric blades offer the same precise light and privacy control you’d expect from Vertical Blinds. Simply rotate the blades to enjoy a gentle view through, or close them completely to block out light.

Veri Shades bring together the best features of both products — combining beauty, functionality, and convenience in one contemporary design.

Design Options + Customisation.

Our Veri Shades are designed to adapt beautifully to any space, offering complete versatility. Our extensive fabric range comes in a variety of colours and textures, making it easy to find the perfect match for your interior.

Perfectly suited to every room, our Veri Shades work just as well in living areas and bedrooms as they do on sliding doors and large openings. Their unique walk-through design makes them ideal for high-traffic areas and open-plan spaces that connect to the outdoors. With their ability to span up to six metres, they’re a practical and stylish solution for wide windows and sliding doors.

Frequently Asked Questions about Veri Shades.

Are Veri Shades expensive?

Our locally made Veri Shades are a cost-effective solution when compared to purchasing both Curtains and Blinds. With the benefits of two products in one, the elegance of Sheer Curtains and the functionality of Blinds, they offer an affordable alternative that delivers style, convenience, and value in a single window covering.

How do Veri Shades work?

Veri Shades are designed for effortless control with a simple turn of the wand. Their unique fabric folds alternate between opaque and mesh panels, allowing you to easily adjust light and privacy throughout the day — all without cords or chains, making them safe for children and pets.

Turn the wand one way for opaque fabric that blocks light and provides privacy
Turn it the other way for mesh fabric that lets natural light filter through
Position the folds halfway for soft, filtered light
Draw them right back like curtains to enjoy full sunlight and an unobstructed view

Do Veri Shades provide privacy at night?

Yes, our custom made Veri Shades offer great privacy at night. By rotating the wand to the opaque fabric position, you can fully block views from outside while still maintaining a stylish, soft fabric look inside. Their design ensures you can control light and privacy effortlessly, giving you complete peace of mind after dark.

How do you clean Veri Shades?

Veri Shades are low-maintenance and easy to keep looking fresh. Regular dusting with a soft brush or vacuum attachment is usually enough. For deeper cleaning, lightly spot-clean the fabric with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Their durable fabrics are designed to withstand everyday use while maintaining their shape and colour, making them a practical choice for busy homes.
