What is the Difference Between Cornice and Coving?

Essentially the response is that they're one and the same. The main thing that separates the two is that a coving normally has a simple design, while a cornice is usually much more ornate and elaborate. In Laindon in the post-war period, the name coving was originally used to describe a simple "C" shaped moulding that was extremely popular at that time. Cornices, in contrast, are normally incredibly ornate mouldings that will need to be put up by a master craftsman in Laindon if they are to be installed successfully.
