Geometric ornament in the form of circles, rhombuses and broken lines were less commonly used. With great artistic taste, gold-embroidered calligraphic inscriptions of a religious nature are made in the border of individual compositions. Each detail of the ornament is embroidered separately, which gives the pattern a slight relief and emphasizes the play of tones within the same colour. The convex ornament creates a play of light and shadow, thereby causing an additional decorative effect.
The modern art of gold embroidery inherited a huge stock of ornamental motifs that are distinguished by their multivariance and bright decorative qualities. Samples of gold embroidery in the collection is about 100.
