Corner Decoration with Acanthus Leaf Pattern

The Naturtrend wood carving shop offers a corner decoration featuring an acanthus leaf pattern. This decorative wood moulding is made from exotic wood and is available in both left and right versions. It can be painted, stained, or varnished according to preference, just like any European wood species. The exotic wood is harder than pine but softer than beech. Its fiber structure and color fall between beech and oak. With our decorative wood mouldings, antique furniture restoration becomes easier. The SK-831 wood carvings for sale look most beautiful when placed symmetrically. Furniture carpenters typically choose them as crown moulding for doors.

Tips for Attaching Wood Moldings

No special tools are needed for attachment. You only need a few easily obtainable items: sandpaper, wood glue (D2 or D3), and something to press it down during drying time.

Let's look at the process step by step:

• Sanding: It's worth sanding the wood carving pattern to eliminate small surface flaws. The back side should also be sanded before gluing. If possible, the surface to be glued should also be prepared by sanding.
• Gluing: Apply glue to both previously sanded and dust-free surfaces, then spread it evenly. After this, your only task is to press the two surfaces together during the drying time. This can be done in several ways: with a carpenter's clamp or by pressing it with weights. Professionals sometimes secure wood moldings with small nails. If excess glue comes out around the edges, wipe it with a slightly damp cloth to avoid problems later. Depending on temperature, the glue will set after a few hours, allowing you to remove the clamps. Of course, if you want to be certain, it's worth waiting for complete drying, which can take 12-24 hours.

These Wood Carvings are Most Impressive When Placed Symmetrically

Symmetry is a phenomenon of repeating, congruent elements found both in nature and human activities. In geometry, it means that an object can be mirrored onto itself, appearing in unchanged form. Most people feel good when their surrounding space has a symmetrical layout. For them, symmetry means order and clarity. If we place a decorative wood moulding in the left corner only, we get the feeling that something is missing. In decorative arts, it has long been a common method to place crown moulding symmetrically, on both the right and left sides.
