What is the Difference Between Coving and Cornice?

A common question that we are asked is "Precisely what is the difference between coving and cornice?" and this can be rather confusing for many property owners in Mountsorrel. The answer to this question is that they're in essence the same thing. If you had to pinpoint a disparity between the two, it would be that covings are rather simple in design, while cornices are rather more fancy. The name coving was originally used in relation to a basic "C" shaped concave moulding that was very fashionable in Mountsorrel in the post-world war period. Cornices, on the other hand, are often exceedingly intricate mouldings that will need to be put up by a master craftsman in Mountsorrel if they are to be installed successfully.
