French translation:rideau en cote de mailles
Explanation:
A priori c'est ce que je comprends. Ou alors "Draperie" à la place de rideau (le singulier est un peu embêtant ici non?)


"We've seen it used in spectacular ways in restaurants and retail spaces around the city. Cascade Coil Drapery makes a sort of chain maille drapery that is used in the home, too.

05.31.cascade.jpgMost commonly, it's seen as a material for fireplace screens, and it can be purchased online as such.

But just imagine the possibilities for this material as window treatments, privacy screens, or space dividers."

Oui j'hésitais un peu, comme habituellement ils vont par paire. C'est donc un "rideau", un peu comme celui-là:

"L'architecte Arnaud Demory, spécialiste des mailles métalliques, a réalisé un grand rideau en cotte de mailles Chainex pour des particuliers qui souhaitaient s'isoler de leur voisins dans leur jardin, sans se couper de la lumière ou de la végétation environnante. Le rideau s'intègre parfaitement au décor, comme une oeuvre d'art."
