A curved or spiral-shaped architectural molding or decorative element.
From Greek 'gyros' (circle, curve) + 'melos' (limb, member, or part). Used in classical architecture to describe ornamental features with circular or helical forms.
Gyromeles appear in ancient Greek temples as decorative bands that spiral around columns—they're both functional and beautiful, showing how ancient architects made math look like art.
