What's the Difference Between Cornice and Coving?

A commonplace question that we are asked is "What's the difference between cornice and coving?" and this can be extremely confusing for a lot of homeowners in Oxford. The answer that you'll perhaps not be anticipating, is that they are effectively the same. If you had to pinpoint a distinction between the two, it is that covings are comparatively simple in design, while cornices are rather more fancy. The term coving was originally used to describe a simple "C" shaped concave moulding that was very fashionable in Oxford in the post-world war period. In comparison, cornices typically call for expertise of a master craftsman in Oxford, if they're to be put up successfully, as they are usually incredibly complex mouldings.
