I'm working on a project and need to put a name on this type of carving. Kind of reminds me of a tulip, don't know why.

This is G&H No. 311

RIFLE NO. 1

A page from the earliest G&H pamphlet that I know of with pictures.
Note No. 11 & 14.

Good Ideas keep them coming, I've not seen any Ivy around these parts.

Another G&H with the same carving. Now start taking notice of the carving at the top of the pistol grip of them.

RIFLE NO. 3

Hello Micheal

The leather carving guys have particular names for many different patterns like this, if you were really stuck someone on www.leatherworker.net might help.
