Star Setting

Also Known As: Scored Setting, Star Opening

In Italiano: Stella

hardware setting style where the ends of the barrels are split and splayed out, creating petals that fold over the material into which the barrel is set, clinching against it and holding in place

Hardware may be scored by the manufacture to aid clean, consistent splitting of the barrels into petals. Alternatively, the hardware may be made unscored, but set with a splash anvil with flutes that split the barrel under pressure.
