valance definition and meaning

What is a "valance"?

A valance is a type of window treatment that is used for decorative purposes and is typically installed at the top of a window. Valances can be made of fabric, wood, or other materials, and are designed to add style and interest to a room while concealing the hardware used to hang curtains or blinds. They can be mounted on their own or in combination with other window treatments, such as curtains or shades. Valances come in a variety of styles and designs, from simple and understated to ornate and elaborate, and can be customized to fit any window size or shape. They are a popular choice for living rooms, dining rooms, and bedrooms, where they can enhance the overall decor of the space and provide a finishing touch to the window treatment.
