En ce cas-ci, il est difficile de déterminer si c'est espagnol ou nord-Afrique: n'oublions pas la reconquista qui a fait fuir ceux que les arabes appellent les "andalous", les musulmans et juifs d'Espagne, avec leurs savoir-faire.
J'avoue beaucoup aimer ce "détail": A popular pattern in Turkish decorative arts, particularly textiles, was the cintamani ("auspicious jewel"). Of Buddhist origin, it consists of three balls or circles, originally representing pearls, and a pair of wavy bands, representing flames or waves of the sea. In Ottoman Turkey, the meaning had evolved into a token of good luck, with a suggestion of strength and courage through association with tiger stripes and leopard spots.
