scallop. 1. Classical architectural enrichment derived from the shell of a scallop with many applications including the decoration of the quarter-spherical heads of arched
apses and
niches.
2. Romanesque moulding consisting of a series of convex lobes similar to a
scale moulding, but in one series only, like the edge of an apron. A variety of it to a very large
scale was used by Neo-Classical architects, often for
friezes.
