When privacy and style count equally, Kirsch Medallian Privacy mini-blinds are a perfect choice. Created to completely conceal rout holes when the blind is closed, this treatment offers the highest degree of privacy and light control with a clean, tailored appearance. Ideal for the bath or bedroom, Medallian Privacy blinds are shown here in china white pearl finish to enhance the deep jewel tone color scheme.

Featuring the quality of wood in this beautiful bay window breakfast nook are Pinecrest Antebellum shutters. This setting is made comfortable and exclusive with total light control through the versatile nature of a shutter treatment. The 2 1/2-inch louvers open and close and each panel is hinged for easy access to the oudoors when desired.
