Custom Stone Jaalis & Partition Screens
A well-placed jaali does more than divide a room. It filters light, adds texture, and creates a functional piece of art that ties your entire space together.

About Stone Jaalis & Partitions
Many clients worry that stone jaalis will be too heavy or difficult to clean. I craft my panels at a standard 30mm thickness to strike the perfect balance between structural integrity and elegance, ensuring they are robust enough for room dividers yet detailed enough for close viewing. Each piece is finished with a protective sealer, making regular dusting the only maintenance you will ever need.
Whether you want a traditional geometric lattice or a modern parametric pattern, my process remains rooted in precision. I combine high-end CNC technology with manual hand-sanding to soften the edges, creating a texture that feels refined, not machine-cut.
Material Choices
I primarily work with Mint White, Red Agra, and Beige Sandstone, though marble is an option for a more premium finish. These materials are selected for their durability and how well they take on carvings, from 30mm through-cut jaalis (perfect for ventilation) to blind-cut panels (ideal for surface engraving).
Lighting Your Space
Lighting is what truly brings a jaali to life. If you are using these for a partition, consider installing a strip light from the top. It creates soft shadows and highlights the 3D texture, making the pattern pop, especially in the evening. This creates a warm, inviting atmosphere that natural light cannot replicate on its own.
Design & Customization
Every space has a different scale. I can create single panels up to 6x3 feet for easier transport and installation, or scale up to hundreds of square feet for large facades. If you have an image from Pinterest or a rough sketch, share it with me. I will create a 3D view so we can finalize the pattern before a single piece of stone is cut.
