Hello, I have a rounded inner corner in the bathroom with a diameter of about 40cm and now for the tricky part, what could be used as a ceiling molding or to curve a molding.

I have used braided ropes and put them up as molding in another room where a regular molding wouldn’t fit, it would work here too but it feels like I want something else since that is already in the hallway.

Anyone with some creative ideas?

Is it a large gap that you need to cover? If you can manage with thinner wooden strips, like quarter round, they are often more pliable than you might think. A radius of 200 mm is not that sharply curved.
To be on the safe side, you can steam it beforehand to make it easier to bend. Place the strip in a plastic tube and fit the tube over the spout of a traditional coffee pot that you boil water in. Experiment a little. Then quickly nail it (if you can nail) before it cools down.
Steaming is also used on "slightly" thicker timber, like the planking on the East Indiaman Götheborg ;) and other ships.
 
thanks for the answer,
it's 1cm and maybe 2cm in some places that need to be covered so I don't think a quarter-round can be an option, I'll have to think further...
 
First, install an 8x27 smyglist, then a 12 kvartstav. Together, they form a nice profile.

thanks, it might be an option,
if one bends a list/quarter-round like that, do you think it retains its angles after bending it?
feels like it doesn't, for example, become 90 degrees up on the quarter-round.
but worth making an attempt...
