Maybe you've seen them hanging in the windows of Wolfgang Puck's steakhouse Cut in Beverly Hills or dividing the tables at one of Mandalay Bay's restaurants in Las Vegas.

The lightweight "fabrics," as the company calls them, come in dozens of sizes and finishes, including satin gold, bright nickel and copper.
