<p>[QUOTE="moreotherstuff, post: 367362, member: 56"]It's what I would call gadrooning, but I'm not sure that's correct. I think of fluting as concave and gadrooning as convex. Looking at auction catalogs, sometimes it's called gadrooning, sometimes fluting, and sometimes lobed. I don't see what differentiates one from the other. I think if you call it convex fluting, you'll be alright.</p><p><br /></p><p>The pattern draws its inspiration from the neo-classical period.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
