Column

The column is a common device in the decorative arts and furniture. They are often used to provide support for a structure, such as a table top, or to create a decorative element. In furniture, columns can be used to create a sense of height and grandeur, and are often seen in pieces such as armoires and sideboards. In the decorative arts, columns can be used to create a feeling of grandeur and sophistication, and are commonly seen in pieces such as vases, sculptures, and wall hangings.

They can also be used to create a sense of balance and symmetry, and are often seen in pieces such as mirrors, table lamps, and clocks.

Regardless of the application, columns are an important part of decorative arts and furniture and can be used to create a sense of beauty and elegance.

Classical Columns often have fluting, which are vertical grooves that run the length of the column, and capitals, which are the decorative tops of the columns. Fluting and capitals can be used to add visual interest to a column and can be used to match the style of the furniture.
