When it comes to adding a finishing touch to home’s décor, incorporating a decorative accent, such as a plinth block, can make a big difference.
A plinth base or block is a small piece of moulding that you place at the bottom sides of a doorway, column or pedestal. Adding these building supplies at the bottoms of doorways, where the casing and baseboard meet, elevates the overall look. Since they’re commonly used on doors, they’re also called plinth block door trims or plinth door trims. By adding a plinth block to door casing, you can conceal the gap between the door and wall to create a seamless transition.
Depending on the type of plinth you select, you can add a classical or colonial touch to support beams, pedestals and more. You can position a plinth block above the pedestal, which serves as the base. The plinth distributes the column’s weight and serves as the connecting piece between the pedestal and the column or moulding.
Most plinth blocks have pre-cut bevels, which means you won’t have to carve your own accents. You can also use plinths as a finishing touch to carpentry, eliminating the need to make miter cuts and simplifying installation. You can paint or stain them to coordinate with your moulding or pillars.
Plinth blocks are available in many different shapes and sizes so you can find the best style for your project. These hand-carved pieces come fully sanded. You can stain, paint or varnish them to suit your home and coordinate blocks with columns or moulding. Many of these pieces feature intricately carved details inspired by historical patterns and designs that can lend added interest to your home’s moulding.
