Shobbak windows in the Jame Mosque

Shobbak or more locally Moshabbak windows, often with blue tile glazing, were used to prevent visitors from looking into the daruni (internal quarters), whilst letting those inside the house observe the strangers at their leisure without revealing their identity.

There are many examples of shobbak windows across Iran. Still, a particularly fine one is in Esfahan, in the Masjed-e J?mé.
