Sash Windows consist of two sashes (frames) which slide vertically up and down to open. This style of window was popular in Victorian and Georgian times and can be seen on many properties of these periods, as well as modern properties recognising the aesthetic and functional qualities of this style. Many parts of the USA and other countries colonised by the British retain this style of window as the standard.
