Georgian Cornice & Coving

Georgian cornice draws directly on Greek and Roman architecture. It’s usually more restrained than Victorian work, with ornament used sparingly and in careful proportion.

Look out for dentils, small rectangular blocks set in a row (C54, C55 and C152), the softly rounded lamb’s tongue moulding (C61), and richer enriched hall cornice for the most important rooms (C171 and C172).

Late Georgian and Regency houses, from around 1811 to 1837, often have slightly lighter, more decorative cornice. Ask us if you’re matching a Regency property.

For a lighter option, lightweight Orac profiles with egg and dart (C212), dentil (C211) and acanthus (C201) detail suit Georgian rooms, alongside classic ogee and cove shapes.
