The '''Kartvelian scales''' generalize the traditional scale of [[Music of Georgia|Georgian folk music]], the [[Kartvelian scale]], to divide the perfect [[Ed4/3|fourth]] and [[EDF|fifth]] into arbitrary numbers of equal steps. The fifth, or conversely the fourth, will be an interval of the corresponding [[edo]] which may generate [[2L 3s]] or [[3L 2s]] and normally stands within one edo degree of 3/2.

The optimal patent tuning of a [[well tempered nonet]] targets the nonet of a Kartvelian scale where a 3/2 is available.
