Looking for a cornice as shown in the image. I've searched in many places but haven't found one. As far as I know, it's a very common cornice from the 1920s-40s, but now it seems hard to find. Exact measurements/material aren't necessary, but this is a cove cornice that extends about 4cm in each direction. Similar measurements might work; it's the shape I'm after. If there's a supplier in the Stockholm area, that's a plus. Second-hand could also work.
 
  • Cove molding in a corner of a room, common from the 1920s to 1940s. The molding extends approximately 4cm on each side.
  • Close-up of a wooden cove molding from the 20th century, showing a 4cm extension on each side, with a focus on its curved shape.
  • Close-up of a wooden cove molding with a distinct profile, described as common from the 1920s-1940s, highlighting its detailed grain and shape.

A little more radius maybe but about the same width.

Thanks for the tip. Unfortunately, this one and similar ones have an edge that approaches 10mm. I need to find one with 1-2mm that can be mounted to look like a smooth transition between wall and ceiling.

You'll have to bring out the rip saw, or have a reason to buy one :)

Hello!
Did you find something similar? I'm also looking for something like this.
Thanks!
 
I would buy a standard and plane the edges with a regular handheld electric planer. Alternatively, go for the plastic version...

I "recycled" mine from the 1920s. They are brittle like mariekex when you take them down, so I had to piece them together with wood glue. Then scrape them clean from a thin paper layer that covered the transition between the tension paper on the ceiling and on the wall. The newly manufactured ones don't look the same, but you can custom order from a flexible planing mill if there are enough meters.

Is plastic excluded?

No, not at all., I think it's a very good solution actually.
Thank you so much for your help!
