A Crowning Choice For Your Décor

If you're looking for an element to really round out the design of your room, try adding a crown or group of crowns to your room. A crown is simply a design element that is curved to form a half circle or other shape to top off a doorway or other feature within a room that you want to highlight and bring attention to.

Many of the crowns available are cast from demolished buildings. These exotically designed patterns are salvaged and then cast in a lightweight resin that gives the look and feel of heavy stone sculpture but not the weight. These crowns can be used over a doorway to give a room with low ceiling more height and they can be used around a favorite artwork or around a window to add some drama to the room.

Other crowns are made from wrought iron and have smoothly curving and curling designs. The Flower Scroll Crown is a perfect example of this type of crown with flowers and a heart sculpted from ironwork and it's gentle curving design. It would make a great topper over a window or used to really call attention to an artwork on your wall. The Paris Plaque is another ironwork masterpiece and if you want to really make an impact, the Scrollwork Crown is an outstanding piece of ironwork for your home.

If you want something classic, there are crowns that will add elegance to your room such as the Roman Marquee which is cast from an original marquee and designer finished to resemble an ancient fragment of a Roman building from days gone by. Add some drama and flair to the décor of your room with crowns!
