Cornices

Cornices

Beautiful architectural cornices designed to add character, proportion and a sense of occasion to a room.

Overview

About This Service

A well-proportioned cornice can transform a plain room, adding architectural weight and drawing the eye up towards the ceiling. Cornices sit at the top of the wall junction and are typically larger and more detailed than standard coving.

We create and fit cornices in a range of styles, from restrained rope-twist and dentil patterns through to elaborate acanthus leaf and scroll designs — each corner carefully finished so the pattern continues seamlessly around the room.
