Arabesque
Return To Glossary
An arabesque is a pattern comprising of interlaced, scrolling foliage, often found on the surface of a decorative item. Often, arabesque decoration consists of one design that can be repeated as many times as required. Originating from Islamic art, the arabesque style became popular in European decoration during the period of the Renaissance between the 14th and the 17th Centuries and has remained popular ever since.
