Roman Shade Sheer Linen

Quality is important to us, which is why we sew our roman shade curtains with battens (metal sticks) distributed along the length of the curtain for maximum stability. This helps the curtain to get even folds when it is pulled up or down.

• The roman shade is delivered with a complete kit of rail and brackets for easy installation.
• Roman shades wider than 79 in (200 cm) are delivered and mounted using a cassette, rather than a rail, for added stability.
• Roman shades with a rail are operated with a cord. Roman shades with a cassette are operated with a chrome ball chain.
• Can be mounted in both wall and ceiling.
• As all roman shade curtains are sewn by hand, the final width/length of the curtain can differ by 0.4-0.8 in (1-2 cm) +/- from the ordered dimensions.
• When the roman shade is fully raised, it takes up approximately 10-12 in (25–30 cm). If you want it to cover a smaller portion of your window, we recommend mounting it above the window frame.
• The depth of the Roman shade is approximately 1.77 inches (4.5 cm). This applies to both Roman shades with a cassette and Roman shades on a track, when installed using the included 1.18-inch (3 cm) brackets.

Material
Our sheer linen is of highest quality, crafted from 100% linen sourced from France. The yarn on the loom spools is used to weave the fabric and is thinner in some parts and thicker in others. This gives the linen fabric an organic character. The fabric is certified according to OEKO-TEX. All Gotain fabrics are woven in Spain and Turkey. Due to the characteristics of linen, our linen curtains may sometimes vary slightly in shade and texture between rolls.

Care
To maintain color and quality, we recommend vacuuming your curtains regularly. Use a soft nozzle and gently run it along the fabric to remove dust and dirt that may otherwise penetrate the textile. Additionally, use a steamer to minimize creases that may develop over time.

• In the event of dirt or staining, we always recommend spot treatment.
• Clean with hot water on a white cloth—gently dab the fabric and finish with steaming—then allow to dry.
• For more substantial staining or dirt, we advise consulting a dry cleaner. Always ensure that your local dry cleaner has the appropriate expertise and tools to manage your stain.
• Gotain does not take responsibility for incorrect handling by a dry cleaner.
• Shrinkage: 2-5%

Maximize the impact of your window by installing your roman shade 6 in (15 cm) above the window and covering the full width, including the window trim.

When the roman shade is fully raised, the length is approx. 12 in (30 cm).

HOW TO MEASURE LENGTH
Ceiling-mounted: Measure from the ceiling down to the windowsill.

Wall-mounted: Measure from 2.8 in (7 cm) above the window frame down to the windowsill (this measurement is required for the cord lock to function properly), or from 6 in (15 cm) above the window frame if you want to create the impression of higher ceilings.

HOW TO MEASURE WIDTH
Measure the width of your window including the window frame. We recommend adding 0.4-0.8 in (1–2 cm) on each side to minimize the risk of gaps, and additional width for blackout shades to achieve the best light-blocking effect.

The Roman Shade Sheer Linen is crafted from 100% linen, woven in Turkey to create a lightweight, open weave with natural variation in the yarn. This sheer linen fabric allows daylight to softly filter into the room, gently diffusing brightness while maintaining a sense of privacy. Its organic character and subtle texture bring a relaxed, understated finish to kitchens, bedrooms, and living spaces.

In the home, these linen roman shades offer a balanced combination of privacy and natural light, making them ideal for windows where you want to reduce glare without fully blocking sunlight. They work beautifully in kitchens, bathrooms, nurseries, and home offices, and can also be layered with curtain panels for a more dimensional, styled look. Soft folds created by horizontal battens add structure and ensure the shade raises and lowers smoothly throughout the day.

Each shade is custom-made to your exact measurements in Gotain’s Swedish atelier, with careful attention to detail. Horizontal battens are sewn along the length for stability, and shades wider than 79 inches (200 cm) are supplied with a cassette system for added support. Every shade is delivered as a complete kit, ready for wall or ceiling installation, and features discreet rings and a natural cotton cord at the back for smooth operation.

Linen is selected for its durability and its ability to soften beautifully over time. Regular vacuuming with a soft brush attachment and occasional steaming will help maintain the fabric’s appearance. The Roman Shade Sheer Linen is a versatile solution for those seeking light-filtering window treatments with a natural, tactile feel, and can be used on its own or combined with heavier drapery for enhanced light control.
