View our Flex Molding Ornaments
Our Flex Moldings have carved repeats of acanthus leaf, egg & dart, lambs tongue, floral, oak leaf, ribbon, reed and berry, rope twist, fluting, and combinations of each. Many of these designs were originally adapted from natural foliage & organic geometric patterns. Torus is the name given to those larger mouldings of semi-circular or semi-elliptic section, such as are specially used in Architecture on the bases of columns and pilasters, on socles, on Mediaeval door and window arches, and on the ceiling mouldings of the Renascence and Modern times. While the smaller beads are ornamented with pearls, and twisted cords, these more important moldings are decorated by enrichments which resemble a bundle of rods round which ribbons are twisted at suitable places.
