This is great! Since I don't have access to the engraving book, are there any "standard" decorative designs like maze, spiral (barber pole), zigzag, etc. recognized by engravers or graphic artists in any field? That was the original question in this post.

Another twist of roses (single petal & "cabbages"), scrolls and ribbons on my
Beretta S3EL:





Very informative post, btw. Thank you all.

Hello Jeff,

It sure looks like it could be, or at least one of his pupils. Here is the left lock plate of the S3.


What vintage is your Fabbrizioli (if I read right)? Bear in mind Signore Bregoli unfortunately left us in 1980. Also, here is what Slate posted
about him some time ago: "In written correspondence that I had with Beretta some time
ago they advised me that G. Bregoli was considered by them to be a " Master Engraver "
who for some time was an " Overseer" and " Exectutor " of engraving on the finest of their
guns. I believe that he retired in 1961."

We do appear to have very similar tastes on guns, :-)

Best,

JC

Can you categorize engraving by each individual engraver or are there various schools of engraving? For example, on a Thomas Boss can you see a difference between the Rose and Scroll or Bouquet and Scroll engraving over the many centuries that a Boss has been built or has it pretty much been the standardized? And so much the same that the Rose and Scroll engraving on a Boss can be differentiated between let's say a Holland & Holland or a James Purdey Rose and Scroll or Bouquet and Scroll engraving?
All the best
