Kartuszowy

Kartuszowy is a Polish adjective derived from the noun "kartusz," which translates to "cartouche" in English. A cartouche is a decorative or ornamental element, often oval or shield-shaped, frequently found in architecture, heraldry, and art. Therefore, "kartuszowy" describes something related to, pertaining to, or resembling a cartouche.

In architecture, "kartuszowy" might refer to decorative moldings or carved elements that are shaped like cartouches, adorning facades, interiors, or furniture. In heraldry, it could describe a shield or crest that is designed in the form of a cartouche. The term can also be used more broadly to describe any decorative motif that echoes the characteristic form of a cartouche, even if it is not a literal representation. For example, a pattern on fabric or wallpaper might be described as "kartuszowy" if it features repeating cartouche-like shapes. The adjective emphasizes the ornamental and often historical nature of the elements it describes.
