Project overview
The wall runs the full length of the hall, framed top and bottom by a continuous gilded cornice with a concealed LED cove above it. Two tall bevelled mirror panels, each set in a carved and gilded frame, flank a wider decorative panel finished with cascading crystal-effect strand detailing — a centrepiece meant to catch the cove lighting rather than sit flat against the wall.
Every joint between panel and cornice was hand-finished on site to keep the gilding continuous — this kind of wall doesn't tolerate a visible seam the way a painted wall would.
What was installed
- Continuous gold-leaf cornice moulding with concealed LED cove lighting
- Two carved and gilded bevelled-mirror wall panels
- Central crystal-strand decorative panel, gilded frame
- Fitted skirting radiator surround and floor-line trim
- Hand-finished gilding and joint work across the full wall run
Why cornice and wall work travel together
A gilded feature wall only reads as finished if the ceiling cornice above it matches — different gold tones or moulding profiles between the two are the most common reason a "premium" wall still looks unfinished. Midpoint runs the cornice, the wall panels and the lighting as one continuous job for exactly this reason.
