The pattern pictured is from a Grade 2 L. C. Smith. I marvel at the many patterns that are achieved by those craftsmen of yesteryear.

Thanks for the confirmation that it's chain.

Chain Damascus for sure. One of my favorite Damascus patterns

Chain Damascus was standard on post-1892 L.C. Smith No. 2 & 3, and an option for Pigeon, No. 4, & A1

Very attractive pattern when refinished (by Bachelder) in black & white

Chain is also found on No. 3 Crass, Lewis & Flues Ithacas, B grade Remington Hammerless Model of 1894 & an occasionally F grade Lefever.

This is an interesting chain pattern on a Baker Paragon, also refinished by Bachelder

The chain lopin is 2nd from left on the top row

Chain is a beautiful pattern. I see a resemblance with Bernard. Can you point out the differences?

Here's my grade 3 Ithaca. What beautiful engraving and barrels.

The Bernard lopin is top row far right - quite different.

A "Rose Pattern" Bernard II Parker barrel which shows an end-on ribband (of 3 rods) as it was added to the helically hammer welded barrel tube. The barrel tubes were fabricated using 2-3 sections of ribband; obviously the thicker at the breech.
