Paisley is a droplet-shaped vegetable motif of Persian and Indian
origin. It resembles a twisted teardrop that is kidney-shaped. When it is made
into a pattern, it is sometimes called “Persian pickles” by American
traditionalists, especially when it is designed on quilts and textiles. There
are many stories about the origin of paisley. But whatever they are, one thing
is clear—it has gone a long way and it has influenced many designs around the
globe. You can see paisleys in textiles, wallpapers, and many others. They
usually come in patterns and are sometimes called boteh, palme, ambi or carrey.
