Answer 1

Based on the description of a dish displaying a peacock feather design, the most likely design principles evident on this dish would be **radial balance and pattern**. Peacock feathers typically radiate from a central point, exhibiting a radial design that creates balance around that point, while the intricate designs also showcase a repeated pattern typical of such motifs.

Therefore, the correct response is:

**radial balance and pattern**
