- Mihrab - A mihrab is a conventional motif in Islamic rugs based on a prayer niche or mosque arch, which can be almost realistic or extremely abstract. It is the basic design element in the prayer rug.
- Terracotta - Terracotta is lightly fired earthenware, red or reddish-brown in colour, used in ancient times. Fired at higher temperatures terracotta was used in the nineteenth century for decorative vases and similar objects, but rarely for utilitarian goods. Other uses for terracotta include roofing tiles, garden pots and ornaments. Glazed terracotta is known as faience.
