According to the Royal Institute Dictionary in 1982, Kranok refers to a pattern of lines.
The Thai pattern is inspired from nature, such as the Lotus, Jasmine, Java Cassia, and Sea Iceland Cotton The prototype of Lai Kranok is from the character of flame.
The patterns decorate buildings and utensils such as a church, pavilion, palace, clothing, and ornaments.
The cut-in notch has a character similar to the lotus petal bud.
If the body has the perfect proportion but the apex is too strong, the pattern is destroyed.
To make the Kranok line look strong and lively, many artists draw the Yhuk (หยัก) shape.
It is shown in general Thai artwork depending on the imagination of the artist.
