miniblinds
Adjustable window covering
Miniblinds are window coverings made of narrow horizontal slats, typically plastic, aluminum, or vinyl, that tilt to control light and can be raised or lowered by a cord mechanism.
The slats are usually about one inch wide, distinguishing them from wider Venetian blinds: The apartment came with cheap miniblinds in every room.
