These are the widest I've ever made this hybrid shade, a cross between a London and a relaxed shade.. London shades droop too much in the center to be used on wide windows, but with the addition of a lift line in the center section, the long point is controlled.
If this style had a center pleat, it would simply be a balloon shade with tails, or a double London shade.
This woven upholstery weight fabric is French blackout lined.
The railroaded fabric is pattern-matched at the pleats. With a 14" repeat, that is a LOT of fabric in each pleat.
These shades are quite heavy, but stationary. Their success lies in the beautiful dressing at the installation.
