What's the Difference Between Cornice and Coving?

A source of constant bewilderment to homeowners in Hurstpierpoint, and a question that we're frequently asked is "Precisely what is the difference between coving and cornice?" Essentially the answer is that they're one and the same. The primary distinction, if you have to draw one, is that cornices are exceptionally ornate, while covings are much more simple in design. Originally, the expression coving referred to a basic "C" shaped moulding that was widespread in post-world war period in Hurstpierpoint. In comparison, cornices often require the expertise of a master craftsman in Hurstpierpoint, if they're to be installed successfully, as they are usually exceptionally intricate mouldings.
