Where Wooden Venetian Blinds earn their keep in Handforth
Solid basswood or faux-wood slats in 25mm, 35mm or 50mm — tape or cord ladder.
Living rooms, studies and bedrooms — a softer, warmer look than aluminium.
In Handforth, that usually applies to 1980s estate detached and modern new build. Mid-range — 50mm slats command a small premium.
