Horizontal blinds (sometimes called venetian blinds) are comprised of a series of horizontal slats. Each horizontal slat is linked together with a string ladder and a set of pull cords, allowing them to raise, lower, and tilt. Nowadays, horizontal blinds are more commonly referred to by the material they’re made of (wood, faux wood, aluminum) or their slat size.
