Lace, filigree, chandelier drops and henna-inspired pattern work that decorates the body like jewellery. Ornamental designs are architectural — built symmetrically around the body's midlines — and pair beautifully with dotwork shading and gem motifs.
A stars carries guidance, hope, a person remembered — and Ornamental's symmetry give that symbolism its voice. Placement matters too: this subject flows best on the wrist, behind the ear, ankle.
