Jaali


Concrete grill, the type of windows in old buildings where women could look out without being seen. These type of windows were called 'Jaalis'. This is in Matharpacady, Mazgaon.

  5. Nice pattern. Just sad women were unseen. Glad times have changed a lot, though some women here wear the niqab and I have no idea if they want this.
