The Tuscany forged hammered baluster is a great looking, simplified piece.  The Old-World hammered design is a great addition to patterns for Tuscany and Old-World style homes. This baluster goes well with the single and double spheres, the single and double diamond, as well as the single and double urn.  Keep in mind that by adding a simpler piece into your pattern, you are creating a visually asthetically-appealing pattern for your balustrade, as well as helping out your bottom line cost of the project.
