encorbellement


Explanation:
A bracket is an architectural member made of wood, stone, or metal that overhangs a wall to support or carry weight.[1] It may also support a statue, the spring of an arch, a beam, or a shelf. Brackets are often in the form of scrolls, and can be carved, cast, or molded. They can be entirely ornamental and serve no supporting purpose. Among these types of brackets is the corbel.[2][3]
