How the European style is created

The European style is the most decorative branch: columns, carving, gilding and curved mouldings in pursuit of ceremony and permanence, most often seen in villas, clubs and high-ceilinged houses.

This style depends heavily on hand work. Carving, gilding and glazing are hard to standardise, making it the longest lead time of the four series.

FAQ

About this style

How much ceiling height does European style need?

We recommend 3.2 m or more, otherwise mouldings and columns press down on the space. With a lower ceiling, switch to modern French or modern American.

Is the carving done by machine or by hand?

CMITAL deep carving (8-15 mm) is hand-shaped; shallow carving is CNC-cut and then hand-finished. Carving samples can be provided for approval before ordering.
