Combining traditional craftsmanship with modern manufacturing techniques, we supply premium plaster products for homeowners, interior designers, builders, architects and more.

Whether you are restoring a period property or adding traditional detailing to a contemporary home, our extensive range of cornices provides the perfect finishing touch. One of our most versatile profiles is the DP 1053 – Small Victorian Cornice, a classic moulding designed to introduce subtle sophistication without overwhelming the room.

Introducing DP 1082 – Victorian Cornice

The DP 1082 – Victorian Cornice has been inspired by the decorative styling that became synonymous with Victorian architecture. During the Victorian era, ornate plasterwork transformed interiors, creating homes filled with character and intricate detailing. This cornice captures that same timeless elegance in a smaller, more versatile design.

Its modest dimensions make it ideal for rooms with standard ceiling heights, where a larger moulding may feel overpowering. It delivers all the decorative charm of traditional Victorian plasterwork while maintaining balanced proportions that suit a wide variety of spaces.

Whether you’re renovating a Victorian townhouse, updating a period cottage or introducing classical features into a new-build property, the DP 1082 offers an authentic finishing touch that complements almost any interior style.
