scalloped edge
Semicircular repeating trim
A scalloped edge is a decorative border of repeated curved projections, resembling the wavy shell of a scallop.
The pattern appears on fabric trims, pie crusts, picture frames, and architectural moldings: The tablecloth had a delicate scalloped edge.
The curves create a softer, more ornamental finish than a straight cut.
