Corbels are used as supports
for arches, ceilings, and shelving. Since corbels are also
decorative, they do not always support weight and can be used to
accent other architectural features. When looking for corbels,
make sure that you see acanthus leaf corbels.
Using acanthus leaves for decoration dates back to ancient Greece.
Stylized acanthus leaves were used to adorn the capitals of Corinthian
columns. This ancient decorative motif has been used throughout
the ages for its classical beauty and roots.
