There are also many types of embroidery- ornament used in ehram weaving. These ornaments made to ehram during weaving such as walnut wing, basil branch, honeysuckle, double rice, antique, macaroni, the play of the star, lentil, lady's belly, rice grain, flying bird with head and without the head, fringe comb, double cards, diamond earrings, gazelle horn, merdin earrings.
