Lachak (corner pieces) لچک
Lachak are the corner pieces of a field: quarter-medallions or triangular spandrels in each of the four corners, usually echoing the central medallion. The Persian word also means a small triangular headscarf. Combined with a central medallion, they form the lachak toranj layout.
