MOLDINGS : Picture railInstead of pounding a nail into plaster to hang a picture, many architectural periods, especially Victorian, developed a molding with a curved top which runs high along the wall, a foot or two below the ceiling, from which pictures can be hung with a special curved hook. These were made of wood and embossed with composition ornamentation. Our moldings are reproductions of these wooden moldings, and because they are plaster, are intended to be decorative only. |
