This attractive cornice features a pattern of Acanthus leaves, with a row of elongated plain leaves behind. 

Greek temples from which the Georgians and Victorians took inspiration for many of their designs, heavily featured Acanthus leaves. They appear on stone corbels and carved into their stone cornices.

Of a size suitable for ceilings of average height and maybe slightly above. This cornice is very popular with owners of Victorian and Edwardian houses. Where it can be used throughout the house. And as can be seen from the pictures opposite, it looks equally classy in a bedroom as it does in a living room.

It also looks just as good when styled in contemporary colours with contemporary furnishings as it does in a more traditional period interior.

A Plain spun ceiling rose, such as MPR073, is a very popular choice to complete the room.

If you are thinking of installing this plaster cornice yourself, we have a range of installation tools and materials. The website also has some helpful instructional videos.

We make every piece of this plaster cornice by hand, which is essential to get the crisp detail of the leaves. We still use the same materials and techniques that were used in Victorian times.

HOW MUCH SHOULD I ORDER?

If you measure your plaster coving needs and order an exact amount, one wall could end up being finished in small off-cuts. To avoid this, we recommend you order 15% extra to ensure longer lengths are used wherever possible, as this will create a better finish. This coving comes in 2.4m lengths.

  • Length: 2.4m

How quickly can I have delivery ?

We use our own vans and drivers to deliver coving. Our products are fragile and need to be handled carefully.

Using our own transport ensures your coving arrives in good condition and customers are kept up to date with progress on the day of delivery. We deliver to the vast majority of the UK within five working days, often sooner.

If you live in an isolated area, deliveries will be less frequent than somewhere like the centre of London, where we have multiple vans every day. If you have an urgent delivery requirement, please call our customer services team at 0333 043 1471, who will be able to tell you our latest delivery schedules.
