I don't actually know what that actual moulding is, I am pretty sure that it is no longer currently available as an off the shelf moulding, but probably about the nearest equivalent would most likely be Simon DRIF/0005, or even DRIF/0009. The actual moulding in your photo has machined ribs, but the drif range is only brushed wood grain instead, which is of course not the same as machined ribs.

The actual width of the moulding in the photo is probably slightly wider that DRIF/0005 and probably a little narrower than the DRIF/0009. It might be worth checking Norfolk mouldings to see if they are able to machine the exact same moulding for you, as I don't know if this is one of their moulding profiles. I hope this helps!

Slightly different but have a look at Lion’s Graffiti range available in 35mm and 18mm wide
