the curved shape of the moon during its first and last quarters,when it forms less than half a circle
sth shaped like this,such as a curved row of houses or curved street
this shape as a sign of the Muslim religion
The moon's argentine crescent hung In the dark dome of heaven.

My powers are crescent, and my auguring hope Says it will come to th' full.
