decorative woodwork
Carved trim pieces
Decorative woodwork is wood that has been carved, shaped, or assembled for ornamental purposes rather than purely structural ones.
It includes moldings, trim, carved panels, fretwork, and architectural details like cornices and balustrades.
The Victorian home featured elaborate decorative woodwork throughout.
Fine examples appear in furniture, cabinetry, and interior design.
