An architectural molding with a wavy or undulating profile, featuring an S-shaped curve when viewed from the side; also called a cymation.
From Greek 'kyma' (wave or swelling), as the molding's S-shaped curve resembles the movement of waves in water.
Cymas are those fancy wavy trim pieces you see on old buildings and furniture—they're basically architectural proof that Greeks loved copying nature, especially waves!
