Jali Work or Lattice Screen
Jali work ( also known as “lattice screen,” “decorative grille,” or “perforated screen” ) is an intricate, decorative lattice design often used in Indian architecture. Traditionally crafted from stone or wood, jali consists of patterned perforations that allow light and air to pass through, creating unique visual effects. These intricate screens are known for their ornamental beauty as well as their functional purpose in enhancing ventilation and reducing direct sunlight indoors, helping to keep buildings cool.
