Watch: "Panjra-Kari" (Kashmiri Lattice Work), a magical craft that is deeply embedded in our Kashmiri heritage.
Panjra-Kari is a craft of making screens of interwoven wooden lattice patterns forming intricate geometric patterns. Traditionally used in elements of architecture like windows, balconies, partitions and ventilators.
In this mystic art of Panjra-Kari, traditionally neither nails nor glue was used and the pieces were hand-fixed by the craftsmen to form a complicated grid.
In this video, we take through a brief overview of this craft as well as show some breathtaking specimens of Panjra-Kari across various locations in the state. These motifs can be seen on the windows of houses in old city, rural Kashmir and ancient Kashmiri Shrines.
