Ornament

Many experts argue that, in the words of ornament derived from the word Ornare (Latin) meaning adorned, in other words, each ornament is described as geometric decoration style or the other. Ornament is made in a basic form of the craft (furniture, clothing) and architecture. Ornament is a component of the art products are added or deliberately created for the purpose as a garnish.

In addition to his duties as an ornamental implicitly involves aspects of beauty, for example, to add to the beauty of a good so better and interesting. In addition, also in the ornament often found also symbolic values ​​or specific purposes connected with the philosophy of life (philosophy of life) of people or society maker, so that objects that have a deep meaning and significance, together with the expectation -specific expectations as well.

In further developments, the use of ornaments in addition to having certain purposes and at the present times a lot of emphasis merely as decoration only, thus ornament truly is a component of the art products that add or deliberately created for the purpose as mere decoration. It is obvious that the duties and functions as a decorative ornament is an object.

Ornament has the characteristics, properties and a very special character such as a beautiful, antique, haunted, beautiful, and or another predicate. Therefore the meaning of ornaments depends from what angle we look at it, and everyone is free to draw conclusions according to his perspective.

An ornament can not be separated from the patterns and motifs, because the patterns and motifs are an integral part of the ornament. In other words, the motive to be the base theme of some art pieces.

In line of the opinion that the described above, if there are curved lines (for example) then the line is called a motive, namely the motive of curved lines. Then, when the line was repeated in a symmetrical arch, you will get another picture of the image into two, is a pattern in the can by using the motif of curved lines earlier.

Furthermore, if the picture into the two were his motives in repeatedly into the picture to three, then the images could be called a pattern of motives to the two earlier, and so on.

So from one type of motive however innocent, as the curved lines are used as examples, it can be obtained after a repetition of a pattern, not even just a course, but it would depend on the possibility of one's creativity in creating it.

Furthermore, if the pattern that has been acquired earlier applied or used as decoration on an object, for example, by the way in carving (example: on a chair), then the last position was as an ornament pattern of the seat. 

At this point it is clear that the motive to be the base or principal of a pattern, where the motive is undergoing a process of drafting and made repeatedly to obtain a pattern. Then after the pattern had been applied to other objects then become an ornament.
