Venetian blinds appeared in Venice (Italy) in 1770 and that is where the name has come from too.

It is said that a famous Venetian merchant once had a very beautiful young wife who used to spend her days by the window waiting for her husband to come back. The merchant was very jealous for men staring at his beautiful wife every time they passed by, so he shuttered all the windows. But the wife wasn't happy anymore because home was filled with dark and coolness. That was why the merchant constructed window blinds which allowed his wife to enjoy the daylight but protected her from the eyes of strangers.

Later such blinds became popular not only in Venice, but all around the world due to their efficiency and today they are considered to be classic already. Advantages of Venetian blinds:
