ABC Wednesday # J #. Jalousies - Γρίλιες


Jalousies, traditional that was placed in all the houses of Greeks that became up to her beginnings 1980, afterwards the fashion with the shutters from aluminium! Entire the shutters now go down and go up, are plastic or from aluminium invested plastic in all colours! Only in the old houses of islands you find these marvellous Jalousies in colours strong blue! -
Γρίλιες, παραδοσιακές που τοποθετούνταν σε όλα τα σπίτια των Ελλήνων που έγιναν μέχρι της αρχές του 1980, μετά η μόδα με τα παντζούρια από αλουμίνιο! Ολόκληρα τα παντζούρια τώρα κατεβαίνουν και ανεβαίνουν, είναι πλαστικά ή από αλουμίνιο επενδυμένο πλαστικό σε όλα τα χρώματα!
Μόνον στα παλιά σπίτια των νησιών βρίσκεις αυτές τις θαυμάσιες γρίλιες σε χρώματα μπλέ !

Beautiful photo and very meaningful to me ... We still have in the old houses of the Eagean region of Anatolia that style of balconies and jalousies ... And unfortunately we are also living the invasion of plastic and aluminium in new houses!

Friendly greetings from Turkey to Greece :)
