2. Panel This type is applied to the horizontal lower surface of the wall to give it visual character. Depending on the situation, it can be simple or a more complex pattern
3. Frieze This is a wide decorative moulding that is often applied under the cornice moulding, giving it a stronger presence.

Ornamentation Considerations

There is a wide variety of ornamentation patterns available on White River Moulding. These range from the traditionally intricate to a more sleek modern look. The homeowner’s task is to decide which style is appropriate for his or her home. The task of the designer or contractor is to make recommendations and ensure that all the moulding elements in the room are visually appealing. The best practice for the contractor is, after doing the take-off, order all the necessary linear feet of moulding that the job needs. This will ensure that it all comes off the same run and will match perfectly. Another consideration is that the nature of moulding will result in a lot of waste, due to the large number of angle cuts. It is not unrealistic to expect to need to order an extra 10 percent.Volterra Architectural Products is your premier supplier of White River Moulding and can handle any size order for your project.

White River moulding is in a class of its own, raising the bar for elegant interior design and remodeling.

Different Moulding Options

Whether along floors, walls, ceilings, doors or windows, the universal effect of White River moulding is an unprecedented aura of sophistication and class. The designs within these trims are of a baroque nature. The cornice mouldings, for example, are lined with leafy patterns and circular arrangements, such as on the Large Acanthus Leaf and Tongue and the Egg & Dart with Dentil. White River also offers panel moulding that is equally elegant. The Small Beads trim is a pattern of circular fixtures, like beads, fit tightly next to one another. The Running Leaf also has ornate leafy creations leaning against one another in succession.

Scrolls, Spirals and Other Classically Inspired Architecture

The frieze mouldings include the elaborate Rinceau Scrolls, a swirling leaf that curls into itself like a spiral, and the Scrolled Palmette, which is several fan-shaped leaves next to one another. These frieze trim components are perfect for completing the effect of any classically-inspired architecture that is present within a home. They complete the look with designs that have been done in the same spirit as pillars and columns.
