ABSTRACT:
A two tier venetian blind comprises an upper and a lower tier of slats suspended from a blind control mechanism; a front upper control cord and a back upper control cord for tilting the upper tier of slats; a front lower control cord and a back lower control cord for tilting the lower tier of slats; and a lift cord passing through a lift cord hole in each slat in the upper and lower tiers of slats. To avoid having the lower control cords hang when the blind is raised, the front lower control cord passes through the lift cord holes in each slat in the upper tier of slats and the back lower control cord passes around the back upper control cord at a plurality of points along the back upper control cord. In this way the lower control cords are gathered as the blind is raised.
