This large swan neck plaster coving has a drop of 170mm and a projection of 190mm as was the fashion in Victorian times, it projects far further across the ceiling versus the length it extends down the wall; we also have smaller version of this coving identical in every detail with a drop of 100mm (MPC065).

If you are looking for authentic Victorian cornice for a period property and your ceilings are high enough (9-10 ft plus) it is certainly worth ordering a sample of this and for lower ceilings, MPC065 will give you exactly the same effect. The video shows swan neck cornice fitted in the bedrooms of a large five bed-roomed Victorian house in Cheshire. The external corners are particularly stylish.

Swan neck cornice was used extensively in the Victorian period through into the Edwardian era, with cornice being used throughout the house, and this particular design is frequently chosen for the renovation and restoration of Victorian and Edwardian properties.  It's large proportions, ideally suited to the higher ceilings of the time. 

 

 

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.

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.
