Founded upon a geometric basis, the partes spread outwards in a regular manner, line flowing from line and leaf springing from branch in the most graceful [It] is light and elegant, yet not wiry, and is rich in those qualities which should mark an ornament of this character'. From "Illustrated London News", 1862.
