Paisley
1.
2. Paisley or Paisley pattern is a term in English for a design
using the boteh or buta, a droplet-shaped vegetable
motif. Such designs became very popular in the West in
the 18th and 19th centuries, following imports of post-
Mughal versions of the design from India, especially in
the form of Kashmir shawls, and were then imitated
locally. The pattern is sometimes called "Persian pickles"
by American traditionalists, especially quilt-makers, or
"Welsh pears" in Welsh textiles as far back as 1888.
Resembling a twisted teardrop, the fig-shaped paisley
is of Iranian origin, but its western name derives from
the town of Paisley, in West Scotland, a centre for
textiles where paisley designs were produced
3. European introduction
Imports from the East India Company in the first half of the 17th
century made paisley and other Indian patterns popular. It was
popular in the Baltic states between 1700 and 1800 and was thought
to be used as a protective charm to ward off evil demons
