Identify moulding

Post by pramsay13 »

I have been asked to match this moulding.
I think it might be Lion M123-49 as the sizes etc match up, but the pic on the Lion website seems to have the blocks of slightly different colour. Is there a similar one with a consistent brushed black finish?

It's so hard to know for sure when looking at a catalogue, or website. Have you asked Lion if they can send you a sample for direct comparison?

It's a nice looking moulding! I would be interested to know where it comes from as well. I think that it might have some interesting hand finishing possibilities!

Are the cross markings in the foil finish, or are they embossed into the surface of the moulding?

Thanks.

The crosshatch finish is in the foil.
