The colors harmonize with the color scheme of your house and will withstand the action of the weather. Vudor Torch Shades retain their newness for many seasons. Vudor Shades are never painted nor dipped. Tainted shades are objectionable, as they make a porch very hot. The painted gurface absorbs the heat, instead of repelling it.

The stained surface of Vudors does not reflect the sun's rays and keeps the porch shady and cool when outside it is "siz-zlingly" hot. AH Vudor Torch Shades are re-enforced at both edges and the wider shades in the center with double warps. This enormously increases their durability. All Vudor Torch Shades have a full drop of eight feet when in use. Other advertised shades are six inches shorter.
