Pastry Server Part 2

I posted on the Pastry Server many years ago . Here I revisit it again because it is a lovely (and expensive) serving piece should you find yourself with one.

Quadrille by Kirk

Kirk introduced Quadrille in 1950. It was designed by Martin Laurence Millsphaugh. I am not quite sure this is not the prettiest "Newer" pattern - as in introduced in the past 75 years - I have found yet. I am entranced.
