modillion
This term is highly specialized architectural terminology, used almost exclusively by historians, architects, and restoration experts. It describes a specific type of ornamental bracket that provides both structural support and aesthetic flourish to a cornice, typically associated with the Corinthian and Composite orders of classical architecture.
Because it refers to a distinct physical component of a building's facade, it is used in a literal, descriptive sense. It should not be confused with a general "bracket" or "console," as a modillion specifically implies the scroll-like carving characteristic of classical antiquity.
