Wood trim and laminate crown mouldings may be somewhat common in homes today, but plaster crown molding can create an ageless and historic look that you expect in a prewar Brooklyn neighborhood. Because plaster was so commonly used in homes before wood trim and sheetrock walls became popular, adding a decorative cornice, frieze, or even thick medallions around a light fixture or in a foyer can give your home a vintage and timeless appeal that you cannot achieve with wood mouldings and other such pieces.

Plaster also has a much lighter feel to it than heavy wood trim, so you can keep an open and bright look in a room when you choose plaster ceiling mouldings versus heavy and dark wood or laminate details. Cast ornament plaster can also be shaped and formed into any decorative design, so you might choose extensive plaster scrolls or swags for your home’s stucco details. For a simpler and cleaner look, choose a simple dental plaster molding, which is a square cutout along the plaster, much like teeth!

Small interior rooms are very common in homes in Brooklyn neighborhoods, but rather than put your home through an extensive renovation, consider decorative cornices to add height and grandeur. A plain plaster cornice can be painted any color so that it creates some contrast between walls and ceilings, and more detailed and intricate designs in mouldings will also draw the eyes up, creating both height and grandeur is a room.

Decorative cornice pieces can also hide cracks and other imperfections that are commonly found in homes in Brooklyn neighborhoods. A radius corner, where the plaster is curved around a wall’s edge, can allow you to add trim to areas where cutting wood pieces would be difficult and time-consuming, and where jagged or rough edges would be noticeable and unsightly. These corners can also add a grander look to a home than simple wood trim.
