1. cyma

   A cyma is a type of architectural molding forming a smooth continuous wave-shaped pattern. It is characterized by an "S" shaped curve that undulates between concave and convex, usually used in classical architecture. There are two forms of cyma, one being the cyma recta which curves inwards then outwards, and the other being the cyma reversa which curves outwards then inwards.
