Quatrefoils Are Back!


Quatrefoil is a design element that was made popular during the Gothic revival period used in architecture and traditional Christian symbolism. Quatrefoil means four leaf. Quatrefoils are being used more and more by designers today in everything from mirrors to beds. Take a look at some current uses of this timeless design element. I love it!
