The last time I looked in a kitchen store all I found were card suits and
butterflies. Not at all what I wanted. I'll try looking on line, since this
might be fun to do for the holidays. A six-petalled rosette would fine.

I have only found one picture of what might be period rosette irons, but the
book doesn't cite a date, so I'm not sure. In Kunstgeschichte des Backwerks,
page 28, there is a photo of three irons. They all have wooden handles and
the iron parts are formed from strips of metal. One is simple in a spiral,
one is like six spokes that have a curl on the end, and the an abstraxt
design with wavy lines. Yea, I know that last description stinks but I'm not
sure how to describe it.

Anyone ever seen rosettes in a period painting?
