Late 19th century pedestal per piece

Pedestal, planed carpentry late 19th century. Finished length 150 cm.

Our program of planed joinery from the second half of the 19th century is of a machine-planed variety that was common throughout the country. This model is known as ‘French carpentry’ and was in production until well into the 20th century. There were normally two variants, one more lavish for finer rooms, such as the hall, atrium and salon. These rooms included, for example, three-part cornices and three-part high plinths. For simpler rooms, such as kitchens, bedrooms and chambers, carpentry was used with smaller dimensions and less complicated profiles. However, some of the moldings, such as linings and breast moldings, tend to be the same, regardless of whether they are in finer or simpler rooms.

For simpler rooms:

Cornice, “gooseneck”, 22×95 mm/m

Door and window linings, 25×120 mm/m

Feed plinth, 25×1500 mm/m

Floor plinth, 21×145 mm/m
