Greek Ornament from "The Grammar of Ornament" by Owen Jones is a section within a seminal work on decorative arts and design, first published in 1856 by the influential British architect and designer Owen Jones. "The Grammar of Ornament" is a comprehensive design treatise that sought to systematize the principles of design and to present a global perspective on ornamentation, drawing from historical and contemporary styles.

The Greek Ornament chapter is dedicated to the analysis and illustration of the decorative motifs and principles characteristic of ancient Greek art and architecture. Jones meticulously documents the geometric patterns, floral forms, and figurative representations that define Greek ornamentation, emphasizing the harmony, balance, and refinement that ancient Greek designs exemplified. He illustrates how these elements were used in pottery, sculpture, and architectural elements such as friezes, cornices, and capitals.

Jones's work was groundbreaking in its approach to categorizing and comparing different styles of ornament from around the world. His detailed plates and illustrations served as a valuable resource for designers and architects, and the Greek Ornament chapter, in particular, provided a comprehensive reference for those seeking to understand or incorporate the elegance and simplicity of Greek design into their own work.

The Greek Ornament section of "The Grammar of Ornament" reflects Jones's broader vision of design as a universal language that transcends cultural boundaries. His meticulous study and presentation of Greek ornamentation continue to influence designers and scholars, and the work remains a foundational text in the fields of art history, design, and architectural education.
