The column-rule-color property is used to set the color of the column rule between adjacent columns in a multi-column layout.
A column rule is kind of like a border that you can add to separate adjacent columns in the same multi-column layout. It can even have styles like those a border can have.
A column rule is drawn only between adjacent columns; that is, it is not drawn before the first column, nor is it drawn after the last column.
A column rule does not take up any space. This means that adding a column rule will not increase the amount of space, or the gap (see column-gap), between the columns.
