I've used the word "Decorative" in the description of part #2871
(Electric Train Motor 9V Decorative Side). I feel that "Ornamented" describes
more like something has a few "mirrors and beads" attached to it, and that
"Decorative" describes more that something is an ornament on its own.
Furthermore, "Decorative" is far less likely to be confused with "Patterned".
