The entire bead is painted, so the picture appears on both sides and the picture remains clear as the strands sway. 90 Strings are needed to give a detailed picture. Bamboo curtains with 90 strings use a thicker bead at the top, and the string tapers down to narrow beads at the bottom. Bamboo Curtains with 135 strings give a higher detail picture, and the bamboo beads are thinner than on the 90 string curtain; also giving a more uniform appearance because there is less taper from the beads at the top of the curtain to the beads at the bottom.This basic illustration shows the different bead thickness, and the different taper, between 135 and 90 Strings:Width
