Balustered

/ˈbæl.əs.tɚd/ adjective

Definition

Fitted with or featuring balusters; decorated with a row of small posts or pillars for support and ornamentation.

Etymology

Past participle of 'baluster,' formed by adding the '-ed' suffix to indicate something that has balusters or is in a balustered state. Emerged as an architectural descriptor in the 1600s.

Kelly Says

A balustered staircase tells you something about a building's age and wealth—before industrial manufacturing made balusters cheap, only wealthy homes could afford elaborate balustered railings, so seeing one can help historians date and assess the importance of old buildings!
