The Dentil Molding Design
The dentil molding is a quite curious design due to the fact that while it is one of the most ancient designs ever made, it exhibits qualities of modern design in its geometrical quality. Looking at the design many people wouldn't even thin to say that it originated in Greece and hasn't really changed much throughout the centuries. The Greek were always known for their keen eye for beauty in a logical way—their beauty was backed up by ratios and numbers. This
dentil molding is a great way to bring the beauty of the Greek temples into your home. It is the perfect molding to go into any style environment—anything from Classical, to Renaissance, as well as Streamline Moderne. It is a truly versatile molding and it is fantastic design that one cannot go wrong with.
How to Beautify Your Dentil Molding
You can paint it just like any other molding in one solid color, but a great thing to do is to highlight the designs. It could be done with painting a base coat of paint then choosing an accent color. Using that accent color, just color in the deeper grooves within the design to add depth and more of a dynamic. With the dentil molding specifically, you should think about perhaps coloring the sides and the bottom leaving the fascia side of each tooth the prime color. Metal paints are great because I thin coat of it makes a subtle, but definitely noticeable difference and the light makes the design sparkle in a way that is not obnoxious or overwhelming, but it definitely makes a huge difference. It can be done with any design, but with the dentil molding it is even more impressive looking due to the high level of relief.
The Right Molding for You
Months upon months get spent in trying to put together all of the details for the décor of the room, but these days decorating your space has become more of a compromise than getting exactly what you want. Have you found the right design before and then realized that it is not quite perfect? That it is either too big or too ornate, or too plain. With the variety of moldings that we have you will be able to find not only the right molding, but the right variation for your particular design style. For example, the dentil molding page has many very different styles; each one has a completely different profile which will let you pick the dentil molding that you actually want, which means that you do not have to settle. You can choose from a simpler crown such as the Longfellow dentil crown molding—it is more dainty than, say, the Montichello dentil crown molding which definitely makes a high impact. We make it our priority to make you feel that you are really in control of what you buy.
