Scroll Pattern is identical to Rosalie
Without Grapes, except there are no carved
crests.
A beautifully executed combination of pure
line and form, the Scroll pattern is close
to Art Nouveau in its appearance. Simple
and elegant. No carved flowers, no carved
crests or aprons, just stylized shell carved
knees, undulating arabesques, and the beauty
of rosewood. While most people identify
Belter only with his most flamboyant, highly
carved furniture, the contrasts and differences
in the spectrum of variety between his simplest
patterns and his most complex patterns define
his genius as a designer.
