Egg & Dart Cornice

Egg and dart is one of the oldest classical mouldings: a repeating row of oval eggs separated by pointed darts. It has been used since ancient Greece and is a favourite in Georgian, Regency and Victorian rooms.

Our plaster range runs from neat profiles with a slim egg and dart band, such as the C150 and C160, to deeper, richer designs like the C40, C97 and C142. All are handmade in fibrous plaster in our Birmingham workshop.

For a quicker fit, the lightweight Orac C212 and C307 also feature an egg and dart band. Pair your cornice with a matching ceiling rose to complete the room.
