The golden ornament that sits atop the dome of the Massachusetts State House in Boston is known as the "golden dome" or "golden ball." It is a gilded copper orb that symbolizes the importance of the state government and has become an iconic feature of the building. The dome was originally designed to be covered with wood, but it was later gilded in gold leaf in the 19th century, enhancing its prominence in Boston's skyline.
