Abstract
Improved decorative shoes for balusters that cover and conceal the attachment points of the balusters to the tread, floor, or rail surfaces and secure themselves in place without the need for mechanical fasteners or adhesives. The baluster shafts can be retained within central holes in the shoes by the use of compressive elastic means such as flexible sheets, rods, strips, O-rings or the like to produce an interference fit when the shaft is inserted in the holes. The shoes can be produced in both flat and angled versions.
