The Project
This 150 years old cornice has been damaged due to previous owners converting residential home into offices as putting up suspended ceiling to lower the height of ceiling and new owners are reversing back to original by taking down suspended ceiling , however the cornice are badly damaged. They need taken down and replicated. The members contains deep undercuts and high relief members but they does look very beautiful in appearance but it is quite challenge to reproduce due to its size and its pattern.
