According to Eva Baer, in her book Islamic Ornament: ....the intricate interlacings common in later medieval Islamic art, are already prefigured in Umayyad architecture revetments: in floor mosaics, window grilles, stone and stucco carvings and wall paintings(Khirbat al- Mafjar, Qusayr'Amra, Qasr al-Hayr al-Gharbi etc.), and in the decoration of a whole group of early east Iranian, eighth- to tenth-century metal objects. Examples of geometric interlacing can also be found in Arabic calligraphy, particularly designs made in in the Square Kufic style.
