A mythical ﬁgure or a flower (as in this

example) is tied (jong) at the point of extension

to serve as the master ornament (Z33). Petals are

clrawn to surround the stern, and ﬂowers and

buds are added to fill empty spaces (234).

Figures 235 and 236 show the Further elaboration

ofthe ornament into its ﬁnal Form (237).

Sometimes natural examples strongly inﬂuence

ornamental ﬂowers, and botanical names can even be used

to designate these ornaments. Figure 156 shows an

ornament sometimes called the flower

Figure 137 shows this flower open, sur-

rounded by Phni Tes leaves. In figure 138, an additional

flower and a bud have been added to the same type of

model.

Figure 141 provides another possibility

Figure 141 provides another possibility where the details of the center loop are adjusted to determine the degree or division in the surrounding pipe. Figures 142 and 143 can not really be called chun no longer since flower buds need: 1 surrounded by roses. For example, offering 141 and 145 alternatives may be called a square shape divided into Kbnch Angkor.
