Dentil & Modillion Cornice

Dentil cornice has a row of small, evenly spaced blocks along its lower edge, like a line of teeth. Modillion cornice uses larger, decorated brackets in the same way. Both come from classical architecture and suit Georgian and Victorian rooms.

Our plaster dentil cornice includes the C21, C54, C55 and C152, and the C1 with grape and vine detail. For a grander look, the C68, C79, C105 and C108 have modillion brackets.

Lightweight Orac dentil profiles include the C211 and C422, with a flexible C211F for curved walls, plus the slimmer CX107 and CX129.
