  • Transparent mesh blinds

    From D.M. Procida@daniele-at-vurt-dot-org@invalid.com to uk.d-i-y on Mon Aug 25 20:37:32 2025
    From Newsgroup: uk.d-i-y

    In museums, they often have blinds made of a fine mesh, that presumably do a good job of cutting down on light and heat while still allowing a view of the world outside. They make a dreamy effect of it, like https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/42oktmr1s3m1uu1gkzi47/Budapest.jpg?rlkey=8dkekxlk3ov6rtrmnqwe9fvgm&dl=0.

    What is this material called - is there a brand name example I could look up?
    I don't think I have seen them in shops.

    Voile might be an approptiate search term but perhaps too opaque for your liking.
