Exterior shutters existed far before colonial America. The history of shutters is thought to extend back to ancient Greece. The wood exterior shutter was adopted in America as a means to effectively control light, provide privacy, and protect from intruders. In the modern era, the need for exterior shutters has diminished with the wide-spread use of window screens, air conditioners, and interior window coverings. Today, the exterior shutter is primarily used to enhance the outside attractiveness of a building.

We found these exterior shutters at a local salvage yard. This particular design is not one I would recommend. The crescent moon cutout has long been the symbol for an outhouse. So, this would not be a particularly flattering exterior shutter design. We think it would be best to find an alternate exterior shutter cutout for your house.
