Sheer Shadings vs. Silhouette Shades
As you saw in the video, you have options to the Hunter Douglas Silhouette or the Hunter Douglas Nantucket Shades. In this case, the product I’m showing you is from Century Shade and Blinds. They call it “Sheer Shadings”.
Silhouette Shades or Sheer Shadings?
What are the differences? In a nutshell, the biggest difference is that you get older versions of the Hunter Douglas product. So, if you need the newest, latest and greatest, stick with the actual Hunter Douglas products. But if you want the overall look and performance of the product category, then the Sheer Shadings might be perfect for you.
Hunter Douglas is the parent company for Century Shade and Blind, Inc. So, when the new things come out in the premium lines, like Hunter Douglas Silhouette, these secondary companies get the “hand-me-downs”. This allows us to get an almost identical product to “last years” products for a lower price.
