Abstract

The Jame Mosque of Isfahan, located almost in the center of Iran, displays ornamentation from early the Islamic centuries until the 13th century AD. We introduce and analyze unique stone decorations found in this mosque. This article presents constructions for the geometric decorations and floral motifs of five half-columns found in this magnificent structure.
