Khatam
What you seeThe compass-and-straightedge construction of an eight-pointed star in fine gold on ink: a circle, its axes and diagonals, the arcs that find them, and two squares set at forty-five degrees, with the star filled in lapis.
What it meansThe eight-pointed star formed by two overlapping squares, often called the khatam, is one of the basic figures of Islamic geometric art. It can be drawn with nothing but a compass and a straightedge.
Where it worksA calm, precise piece for a study or above a desk.
