Balcony Ironwork, Charleston, SC © Doug Hickok All Rights Reserved
A fleur-de-lis pattern on ironwork frames a balcony at dusk. This stylized flower is usually associated with French royalty. Charleston has a French connection that dates back to the colonial era when the town was settled by Huguenots escaping religious persecution.
