Description

This intricately carved stone jali panel originates from Dungarpur in Rajasthan and dates to the 19th century. Jali panels are a hallmark of Indo-Islamic architecture, known for their delicately pierced stonework that filters light and air while creating beautiful geometric patterns. This example, carved from pale stone, features a repeating lattice motif and has been carefully mounted on a custom iron stand for display.

Panels like this once adorned the facades and interiors of grand havelis — the stately homes of Rajasthan’s wealthy families — serving both decorative and functional purposes. Each was hand-carved by skilled artisans using traditional tools, showcasing the remarkable craftsmanship of the period.
