Fluted refers to something that is thin and mellow, pertaining to a flute or resembling a flute for example, fluted glasses.
In architectural terms, fluted can also mean something that is embellished with flutes, that is, grooved or engraved for example, a fluted truffle. Cloth or furniture can also be fluted.
A flute is a wind musical instrument that generates sound when a small blast of air is blown through the mouth against the rim of a hole, which in turns leads to the vibration of air inside the instrument, causing sound.
Majority of flutes are tubular in structure, but there are others of different shapes like globes. Some flutes are played while being held vertically, such as Japanese bamboo flutes. Others are positioned in a horizontal way while playing they are called as transverse flutes.
