adds the finnishing touch to the room.

This carved wooden corbel is no Grinling Gibbons, but it is better than many other mouldings and pieces I have seen, which look to be more pressed than carved. It is made from two pieces glued together, of some species of timber. It is not stated in the listing. It looks a bit like beech, but is probably one of the far eastern hardwoods that may or may not be very durable. I am no timber expert.The form has has clearly been designed to be routed out by a CNC machine, and the finish is clean, but with many textures and imperfections, as shown in some of the listing pictures. Any sanding must have been superficial, because it's rough in many places. Expect to do some finishing if you want a smooth surface.The corbel has a flat back and top, with no mounting provision. It could be glued to a suitable surface, or attached with nails or screws, or perhaps one or two keyhole plates screwed to the back for invisible fixing.This is a decorative item with multiple uses, but at £25.29 for one (about £21.50 with current discount), you could buy an antique piece for the price of a couple of these.

Perfect size for 2 door cabinets or openings 60-90cm wide. Good for building props made to be reused, otherwise foam or the plaster-wood block trick is cheaper and more convenient. Depends on time/budget.
