ABSTRACT:
A drapery and support combination is provided for a slat type ("woven wood") curtain wherein spacers between the slats are connected to the support elements in such a way that, in the fully closed position of the curtain, the spacers hold the slats at the correct angle independently of the looseness of the curtain material which hinges the slats to each other. The spacers are flat and arranged in a vertical plane so as to present an attractive appearance and not to interfere with opening or closing the curtain. The end slats are adapted to pivot on a fixed axis which may be either on the centerline of the slat, or, on the outer margin of the end slat in which latter case, the end slat is supported at a second point which slides relative to the curtain rod along an arcuate path the center of which is on the pivot axis of the end slat. One or more additional slats may be added to the fixed outer margin in order to extend the curtain coverage back to a wall.
