- "For grand designs."
A column is a decorative item. They are made on multiple crafting surfaces and of various materials. They were introduced in version 1.5.
Appearance
All columns have a central shaft shaded to appear roughly cylindrical. The bottom of the shaft has a plate-like plinth, while the top has a similar capital (or chapiter). When columns are stacked, they join together and have only one plinth and one capital. Their color is dependent on what block they were crafted from.
Columns are in the foreground, and blockheads pass behind them from a player's perspective.
Where Found
There are several crafting surfaces that can make columns, each according to the type of block to be used.
Various types of metal columns are made with a metalwork bench or electric metalwork bench. Wood and brick stairs are crafted at the woodwork bench and the kiln, respectively. Only the various types of stone and ice require a specialized crafting bench, the stonemason's bench.
There are no columns made of dirt, sand, black sand, compost, glass, black glass, or reinforced platforms.

Use
No matter what the materials, all columns are placed and removed as easily as any decorative item by just tapping on the space. There must be a solid block or column directly above or below.
All columns of any material interact equally. Each column segment will retain its original coloring.
Removing a supporting block or column will cause a single supported column to drop, but two or more connected columns will remain suspended where they are.
Back walls have no effect on columns and vice verse, except to block their formation as noted below. Existing leaves and other plants will prevent placement of a column.
Notes
Ice columns will melt into a half block of water if it is warm enough.
Stairs, chests, and crafting surfaces cannot be placed on top of existing columns unless a back wall is present in that space. Lanterns and rail can.
Placing a solid block on top of a column will prevent the new block from generating a back wall below it; this condition persists after the column is removed. This is similar to the effects of a reinforced platform.
Placed columns are unaffected by flowing water.
