Celtic Knotwork
On a vellum page, one cream ribbon is drawn through a pricked grid, crossing strictly over and under until it closes on itself, then ochre, verdigris and lapis fill the gaps from the center out, red dots are stippled around the frame and gold catches a passing light.

About this style
Interlace was the signature ornament of the gospel books made in Irish and Northumbrian monasteries between the seventh and ninth centuries. Scribes pricked and ruled a grid, then laid a ribbon through it that crosses strictly over and under, often as a single unbroken thread, and filled the spaces with mineral pigments such as orpiment, verdigris and lapis, framed by rows of red-lead dots and touches of gold. The look still reads as patient, mathematical and handmade, which is why it suits titles, book and game art, and any brand that wants craft and heritage. It works when the weave is truly correct, the color is flat and jewel-like, and the gold is the one thing that shines.
