Crolle - Crull - Crullen - Curlen are Middle English words that appear in Chaucer's Canterbury Tales written c. 1386 -
“And his lokkes buth noght so crolle…” and a young Squier with locks as “crulle as they were laid in presse.”

In Danish, krolle; Swedish, krulla; French, s'enrouler; German, rolle
“To form into coils or ringlets. Twist.”

“Crolle” was used in reference to damascus barrels in Liege and England by at least the 1880s.

Richard's GHE is D3 - the 'scrolls' are larger and there are 2 'zipper' welds down the middle of the scrolls in between 2 straight ribband edge welds.
