Finials and Drapery Hardware

Windows are the architectural space that bring light into an interior space. Blinds or drapes filter the light, coordinating with the decor of each room.

Rods and finials are sold separately or in kits, with rings and brackets. Do your windows have treatments with an extra touch?

The variety of rods used with drapery panels are contingent to the weight of the fabric. Wood rods are very traditional, but can be painted to be a more contemporary accent. The weight of the drapery panels is important in gauging the strength of metals rods. Metal affords a lightness that is good for hanging sheer fabric, and heavy metal, such as galvanized conduit support lining fabric such as chenille cottons.
