Ornamental Capitals - Distilling Nature in Ornament

Architectural Moulding and Millworks Capitals artfully capture natural themes and images in an aesthetic composite sculpture.  For example, the volute scrolls of the Ionic, Erectheum, Angular, Scamozzi, and Empire imitate the helix cross-section found in the Nautilus shell.  The acanthus leaves on the Temple of Winds and Corinthian Capitals echo the flowering crown of a tree.  The capitals are crafted from a number of materials including wood, plaster, and fibers and are shaped into the appropriate the proportions for the various styles of architecture and sizes of column shafts.
