Roman blinds can be hung from a traditional batten with a cleat installed on the wall to wind the pull up strings around or from a metal headrail with a chain mechanism.  A metal headrail is particularly appropriate if it is a very wide, heavy blind or you may prefer this mechanism if you are pulling up the blind frequently.   In this instance the blind is fairly wide & an antique brass metal chain was chosen to complement the door hardware in the kitchen where it is to be installed.

The  discreet metal headrail can just be glimpsed in this side on view.

Our roman blinds are sewn by hand to avoid unsightly rows of stitching on the front of the blind.

All of our blinds are supplied with a child safety mechanism.  If you would like more information about this do let me know.
