A floral-shaped design which is said to resemble the “Star of Bethlehem,” an early spring flower of Persia. It is much used in border designs and it alternates with the palmette in forming the Sha Abbas pattern. It also forms the design known as the Knop and Flower by alternating with a closed bud.
