Shutters may not seem important in terms of function, but they do actually serve a purpose! Shutters have been around as early as the 15th century with their origins being from Greece. In the beginning, when walls were made of brick or stone, they were placed in the interior of a home and served to 'shut' a window in order to keep out weather and animals. Today, a key purpose is to attract UV light in order to prevent the fading of furniture, flooring and artwork. They can also serve to add another layer of protection from weather as well as to help provide privacy, ventilation and protection.
