This balustrade is a decorative architectural railing designed for both resin and filament 3D printing. It features classic ornamental details that are ideal for dioramas, scale models, dollhouses, architectural mockups, and decorative projects.
The design is optimized for easy printing and can be resized to fit different scales. It works best on resin printers for high detail, but it can also be printed on FDM printers with good results.
This model is intended for decorative and non-structural use.
