Having the shape or form of a drop or gutta, like a small droplet.
From Latin 'gutta' (drop) + '-form' (having the shape of). This combines the Latin word for drop with the common suffix used in biology and medicine to describe shapes.
Medieval architects used this term to describe the ornamental drops hanging from cornices in classical buildings—those little teardrop-shaped carvings were called guttae, and this word describes anything matching that elegant shape.
