Pakistani jali 16.01.2006
A jali is a perforated wooden screen, common in Hindu and Islamic architecture, and in Islamic Architecture. The present jali is made of small pieces of wood that interlock by means of tooth and hole connections, so without the use of any glue or nails. The frame keeps everything together. Because from within, everything outside is visible through jali holes but from the outside, nothing gets visible inside due to light difference, they are often called harem windows or mashrabiya / moucharabieh.
