About Symmetry with kannaDa-telugu numerals : PRINT
The numerals in kannaDa are : ೧ ೨ ೩ ೪ ೫ ೬ ೭ ೮ ೯ ೦ (from 1 through 9 and zeo); in telugu they are : ౧ ೨ ౩ ౪ ౫ ౬ ౭ ౮ ౯ ౦ . I created symmetric patterns using these numerals. Top row - 1, 2, 2mm, middle row - 3, 3m, 4, bottom row - 4mm, 6, 6mm. Pure mirror symmetry (m) is omitted. In telugu, the numeral three is similar to the Roman numerals we use normally. That is why I used the kannaDa 3. Here also one may see that 6 and 9 are inverted. Interestingly, this kind of numerals are part of the compound letters (ottu) we use in those languages. Still these numerals that are used for page numbers in kannaDa books. Enjoy!

Very beautiful patterns. Very difficult to pin point the best. But I liked the 5th and 7th patterns the best.
