mullion
This term is primarily used in architectural and construction contexts. It describes a structural member that provides support and separation between window panes, often associated with traditional gothic or Tudor styles where heavy stone or timber was required to hold glass in place.
In modern residential construction, the term is less common in casual conversation, where people might simply say "frame" or "divider." However, it remains a precise technical term for architects and historians to distinguish the vertical dividing element from the horizontal one, known as a transom.
