A mini blind is a type of horizontal window blind made of long, narrow slats held together by string. Its slats are less than half the width of a regular venetian blind, and are usually made of aluminium, measuring 15mm or 25mm. The slats are opened and closed by rotating a rod or by directly pulling a string, and they are raised and lowered by pulling other strings.
In the United Kingdom the term "venetian blind" also covers mini blinds.

Famous quotes containing the word blind:
“A blind man. I can stare at him
ashamed, shameless. Or does he know it?
No, he is in a great solitude.
O, strange joy,
to gaze my fill at a strangers face.
No, my thirst is greater than before.”
—Denise Levertov (b. 1923)
