What is the best coving to buy, Good to Know About Coving
The history of plaster coving spans back to the classical Greek Empire, where it was common to beautify the interior and exterior of one’s home with designs and embellishments at the top of walls. Since then, it has evolved to come in a variety of designs, shapes, and sizes, as well as materials. In the UK, this tradition developed two styles of design: the Victorian cornice, and the Edwardian cornice. Decorative ceiling covings are an established way to adorn one’s home. These coving styles have been kept alive by traditional households and have also been evolved into more modern ceiling coving designs. In essence, covings are concave-shaped mouldings that can set off a room by bringing the finishing touches and accents to an interior.
