I loved the graceful demilune tables that flanked the front doors and the classic ceiling moldings in the sitting room.

I also wanted to move the existing ceiling moldings to the outer tops of the bookshelves, to give them a truer built-in look.

Removing the ceiling moldings didn't.

Last, I attached the ceiling moldings, which was not easy because the pieces that fit at right angles had to be mitered together.

Interior details are generally classical with dentilled ceiling moldings, pilaster strips, and frieze.

Also in the neo-Classical style is a stately central hall and a parlor with ceiling moldings and a huge white marble fireplace.

Traditional ceiling moldings were usually composite, and they featured a length of crown molding in the profile.

Behind it the main entrance leads into a narrow vestibule and then a wide side hallway with detailed ceiling moldings.

The grand fluted columns, carved wood floral work and delicate ceiling moldings make it look like something from the Plaza Hotel.

At Homewood, the restorers designated a rather grand room, with ceiling moldings and a rosette, as the master bedroom.
