Stone jali — intricate lattice screens hand-carved or CNC-machined from Jaisalmer sandstone — are among the finest expressions of Rajasthani stone craft. Used in palaces, temples, havelis, and contemporary luxury spaces worldwide.
Stone jali (also spelled 'jaali' or 'jali') is the ancient Indian art of creating intricately perforated stone screens. Jaisalmer's stone craftsmen have perfected this art over centuries, creating lattice screens that filter light beautifully while allowing air circulation — a natural solution perfectly adapted to the hot desert climate.
Jali screens are characterized by geometric patterns (hexagonal, octagonal, circular, star-shaped), floral and vine motifs, Islamic-inspired arabesque patterns, and custom designs. The patterns vary from simple repeating grids to extraordinarily complex compositions with multiple layers of meaning.
At Shraddha Saburi Stone, we produce jali screens using both traditional hand-carving by master shilpis and modern CNC machinery. CNC ensures perfect geometric precision for contemporary designs, while hand-carving produces the character and subtlety of traditional craftsmanship.
