Definitives - Art of Shebeke in Azerbaijan - Juma Mosque, Ordubad

Shebeke (Azerbaijani: Şəbəkə) - are windows filled with coloured glass, created by Azerbaijani folk craftsmen from small wooden parts without glue and nails.

In the building of the Sheki Khans Palace, shebeke fills walls, window openings of halls and rooms. Geometrically, shebeke windows fit with the general composition of the main facade of the palace. The continuous stained-glass shebeke-windows of the central halls and side rooms overlook the facade of the palace. It is believed that the replacement of the outer walls of the halls of the both floors and the upper rooms by lifting sash-stained-glass windows is a feature of this ceremonial pavilion architecture.

Numerous residential stone houses of the 18th-19th centuries, decorated with shebeke, can be found in the city of Shusha.
