The Sheer Shade does not achieve its light control through vanes, rather through a cellular system with walls of varied opacity. There are several key advantages to the single piece cellular construction:

• No gluing, so there's never a delamination, which is quite common in the multi-piece "vane" construction
• The single piece weaving method ensures consistent tension which eliminates waviness and lack off full opening/closure; common defects of the multi-piece "vane" construction.
