Plaster Cornices
Decorative Plaster Cornices
Our plaster cornices are priced per meter and include GST. Length sizes made are 3.6m, 4.2m, 4.8m.
**Allow 15% extra when ordering to allow for any variations that may arise during installation. This will often save you valuable time and money.

Cornices have 2 measurements. They are measured by how far from the corner of the wall/ceiling junction they project on to the ceiling & drop down the wall. The first dimension is how far the cornice projects on to the ceiling. The second dimension is how far the cornice drops down the wall.
The best plaster cornices for you and your home.
Decorative cornices – the mouldings that smooth the transition between walls and other vertical features and the ceiling of a room – are often regarded as one of those traditional finishing touches that's hidden in plain sight. Perhaps not a stand out feature, but one that softens corners and adds visual texture. No longer.
Nowadays, as more people rediscover the aesthetic and functional benefits of cornices, more and more interior design concepts incorporate cornices for their unique styling benefits.
Simply, a cornice is a special touch that completes the interior decoration of a room – they add a value and elegance to your home that lasts a lifetime.

Plaster Cornices FAQs
- What lengths are plaster cornices sold in?
Most plaster cornices are supplied in standard lengths, although exact sizing can vary by profile. If you are planning a full room fit-out, it can help to compare your options across the main plaster cornices range or review faster-turnaround options in the in-stock cornices section.
- How do I choose a plaster cornice to match a period style?
The best profile usually depends on the age of the home, ceiling height and how decorative the room is overall. More detailed styles often suit heritage and period interiors, especially when paired with features such as ceiling roses or decorative details shown in the decorative ceiling gallery.
- Do you offer in-stock and made-to-order plaster cornices?
Yes. Silver Cornices offers both in-stock and made-to-order options. In-stock profiles are useful when timing matters, while made-to-order plaster products are often better for custom projects, heritage restorations or rooms that also include coordinated elements such as ceiling panels.
- Can you help match an existing cornice profile?
Yes. If you are restoring an older home or replacing damaged sections, Silver Cornices may be able to assist with matching an existing profile. This is particularly useful when other traditional plaster details are already in place, such as corbels or decorative wall vents.
- Do you offer delivery or collection?
Yes. Orders can generally be arranged for delivery or collection depending on the size of the order and your location. For larger or more fragile decorative plaster items, it is worth checking the best option when ordering, especially if you are purchasing multiple pieces from across the range.
- Are in-stock cornices lower quality than made-to-order cornices?
No. In-stock cornices are a practical choice for common profiles and quicker supply, while made-to-order options are better suited to custom or exact-match requirements. The right choice depends more on your project needs, style requirements and turnaround time than on quality alone.
