Islamic interlace patterns
Interlacing patterns
dominate
Islamic
ornament
. They can be broadly divided into
arabesque
, using curving plant-based elements, and
girih
using mostly
geometrical forms
with straight lines or regular curves. Both of these forms of
Islamic art
developed from the rich
interlacing patterns
of the
Byzantine Empire
, and
Coptic art
.
