About this product
Control the light in your room with this wooden Venetian blind that lets you adjust the atmosphere throughout the day. Twist the wand to tilt the slats and let more or less light filter through, setting the scene for a cosy film night or waking gently as daylight streams in. Crafted from wood with 50mm slats offering clean lines and a timeless look, the automatic safety lock keeps it secure when in position. The blind comes with all fixtures and fittings included, so you have everything needed to fit it inside or outside your window recess or directly to the wall.
The removable slats make cleaning easy when you need to freshen things up, and the whole blind is wipe clean for simple maintenance. It's suitable for kitchens and bathrooms, coping well with moisture and everyday wear. The blind meets 2014 safety standards BS EN 13120 and includes a child safety cleat, so you can install it with peace of mind.

Great
Easy to mount really good quality
Ruhad, 35 - 44
Excellent blinds
Excellent quality blinds, I already have the walnut ones in bedroom and wanted these slate ones for my newly painted dark grey lounge. They’re easy to put up and look quality. Value for money.

Very nice blind and good value
For the price the blind is very nice, made from real wood and with ribbons instead of strings. It was available in a good range of sizes so fitted my window perfectly and didn't need trimming or adjusting. It would've been helpful if the top end brackets were a little deeper but I think they're a standard size.

Good quality blind, questionable fixings
The blind are very high quality, look great and reasonably priced. I love the way they look in my room. However, they cheaped out on the included wall plugs and screws. These blinds are VERY heavy. The wall plugs are very cheap and the screws are too short for the plugs. I would definitely recommend buying better quality wall plugs and longer screws to fit the blind more securely to the wall.

Blind
Brilliant worth money

It’s ok for the money
It looks good and It’s ok for the money, I only bought the small one which cost little so It will do for now but if I’d bought the bigger dearer ones I would not be happy and would take them back for a refund as it doesn’t close tightly at the bottom of the blind.

Lovely but not versatile
Lovely looking blinds. Good quality. Unfortunately it is not recommended to cut them down to fit window so had to return as slightly too big.

Hi Olly,
This can be fixed to the ceiling inside a bay window.
Hope this helps.
Thanks for using Q & A
If you are good with DIY, then you can make them narrower by a few centimeters.
The only components near the edges are the controls for tilt and drop, which are on the left and the right as shown on the pictures.
You would need to cut the aluminium top and bottom and all the wooden slats.
The cut on the top will be hidden inside the brackets, but you would need to paint the side of the slats so it matches.
Do this at your own risk and remember you can not return them afterwards.
The instructions that come with them, specifically mention you can Shorten your blind.
There is a section there showing you how to do this. It is pretty straight-forward if you have some basic DIY skills.
I was also worried about this because they have about 10cm longer drop than i needed them
If you are adventurous enough, you can even make them narrower because there are no components near the edge of them

Hi Gareth,
I can confirm the Little Black Book 50mm Venetian Blind is not a cut to fit blind
Thank you for using Q&A
Hi Helen,
I have checked to release the blind you need to hold the cord on the right hand side and take it to a 45 degree angle you should feel it release and it will then just lower down.
Hope this helps.
