Lattice An all-over pattern consisting of ogives, diamonds, hexagons, octagons, or rectangles. Usually the cells are filled by some floral motif. In classic Persian rugs, lattices are ogives formed by curving stems or vines. These rug designs may be composed of a lattice in one plane or of two or three planes of lattices superimposed. The three-plane lattice design is most common. Early versions of these designs are curvilinear, while later versions consist of diamonds or hexagons rather than ogives.[1]
