/rəʊˈzet//rəʊˈzet/

The word "rosette" has a beautiful etymology. It originated in the 15th century from the Old French word "rosette," which means "little rose." This Old French term was derived from the Latin word "rosa," meaning "rose." Initially, a rosette referred to a small, wreath-like arrangement of flowers, typically a rose or a spray of rose-petals. Over time, the term expanded to describe a decorative motif or design featuring circular patterns of flowers, leaves, or other ornaments. Today, a rosette can be found in various forms, from traditional garlands and wreaths to modern architectural decorations and even digital graphics. Despite its evolution, the word "rosette" retains its connection to the elegant and timeless beauty of the rose.
