The Cherry Blinds Uk venetian blind is a single-finish, made-to-measure aluminium venetian sold by Blinds By Post, available in 1 finish and starting from £52.00. At that entry price it sits firmly in the accessible end of the venetian market - Blinds By Post stocks a broad range of venetians at various price points, and this cherry option occupies the entry tier. That makes it worth examining on its own terms: is the colour and material a genuine fit for your room, and does the price reflect good value for what it is?

Who it suits

Venetian blinds are a practical match for kitchens and bathrooms, where their wipe-clean aluminium slats hold up to moisture and cooking grease far better than fabric. The slat tilt mechanism also makes venetians well suited to home offices and studies, where you can admit diffuse daylight while cutting screen glare by angling the slats rather than raising the blind entirely.

The cherry tone will suit rooms with warm-toned decor - wood floors, terracotta walls, or earthy palettes - rather than cooler, grey-leaning schemes. It is less likely to work in a bathroom or kitchen where stainless finishes and neutral tiles dominate, where a white or silver aluminium venetian would be the more natural fit.

Venetians are not the first choice for bedrooms where complete darkness is the priority. Even with slats fully closed, light leaks at the edges of the blind because the mechanism and side of the slat stack leave gaps. If blackout is essential - for a child's room or a shift worker's bedroom - a roller blind with side channels or a perfect-fit fitting installed into the window recess is a more reliable option. For a bedroom where some morning light is acceptable and the priority is style and easy light adjustment, a venetian can work well enough.

The finish

1 colour available

This range is offered in a single cherry finish. The warm reddish tone sits in the same family as mid-toned wood stains and terracotta, making it a considered choice rather than a neutral default. If your room's palette is built around cooler or more industrial tones, the cherry colour will read as a visual accent - which may be exactly what you want, or may not sit well depending on the rest of the scheme.

Because there is only one finish available, there is no premium variant to consider. What you see in the grid is the full offering.

Starting from £52.00, this venetian sits at the accessible end of the made-to-measure market. As with all blinds priced this way, the final cost rises as width and drop increase - the widget above shows how the price scales across common window sizes, which is useful for budgeting before you measure up.

How it compares

For anyone primarily looking for light control and ease of cleaning in a warm interior, this range is a straightforward option. Aluminium venetians at this price point are functional rather than decorative centrepieces; the slats are lightweight, which suits most standard windows but means wider blinds can feel less substantial than a heavier faux-wood or real-wood venetian.

If you are drawn to the warm wood-tone aesthetic but want something with more visual weight, a faux-wood venetian in a similar mid-brown finish would give a closer approximation of timber at a modest premium. Real-wood venetians sit above that again in price and should be kept away from kitchens and bathrooms where humidity causes warping.

For the specific combination of a warm colour, made-to-measure sizing, and an entry-level price, the Cherry Blinds Uk venetian from Blinds By Post is a practical shortlist candidate.

A note on care

Aluminium slats are among the easiest blind materials to maintain. A damp cloth and mild detergent is sufficient for grease or dust build-up; there is no fabric to vacuum or spot-treat. The cherry anodised or coated finish should be wiped rather than scrubbed to avoid marking the surface.
