Corinthian Columns

The Corinthian Order of classical architecture was typified by the unique style of the Corinthian Column which had a slender fluted shaft and an ornate capitol decorated with carved acanthus leaves; the Corinthian Order was ornate and delicate compared to the Ionic and Doric Orders which were more solid, i.e. heavy looking, and did not have the grace of the Corinthian style.
