Hi can anyone help me ID this moulding please? It looks familiar but can't find it in all my usual sources. Width 45mm, depth 28mm. Thank you

I used to get that from Byron Mouldings. That was early '90s though.

Got the feeling I've seen similar quite recently. I'll have a look later........

D & J Simons used to do 000W/0626 which was the same shape, but not exactly the same dusty looking gold, it has not been in their catalogue for a few years now. I would guess it has not been available from Simons for something like about five, or six years.

If sombody still has enough of 000W/0626 lurking in their back room somewhere, then there is the possibility of darkening the gold with a suitable wash and then adding the dusty effect on top.

I vaguely remember that Frinton, or Wessex might do, or perhaps once did something like this, but I might well be wrong about this. I know that I had sample of all three finishes in the range at one time, but I don't remember exactly where they came from.

Hi Phi

Shape looks spot on. Not sure about the colour.

Would you be able to send me a small sample for approval?

Cheers
