A small band or narrow stripe, particularly used in architecture or heraldry to describe a thin decorative line.
From bandel with the diminutive suffix -et (or -let in English), creating a smaller version of the original word.
Architects love bandelet in classical descriptions—it's the thin decorative stripe that runs along a building's face, and knowing the term makes you sound like you actually studied architecture!
