Cornices

Wunderlite currently produce for stock 5 Cornice designs which were commonly used in heritage buildings.

The Large and Small Egg and Dart Cornice and the Rose Cornice were typical of the classical designs in turn of the century homes and commercial premises. We also have a Clarence Cornice, a Fan Cornice and a Plain Cornice which are more of the Contemporary era.

All pressed metal ceilings may be installed with any of the available plaster or timber cornices and quad strips but the diaper patterns in the older buildings were almost always installed with the Egg and Dart or the Rose style of cornice.

Our Clarence design is greatly enhanced by using its own cornice and from time to time we are called upon to produce a specifc replica or modern pressed or folded metal cornice design and we are able to copy any specific pattern our clients present to us.

Please click on the images to see a close-up - all cornices are available in 1800mm (nominal 6') lengths.
