Build Spanish Corbels Information

Corbels are a great way to add elegance and style to any home, apartment or building. They are found inside or outside, and have been around for hundreds of years. Whether they are placed for support (as originally designed), or for decoration, they are sure to add a finer touch to any building or room

despite the appeal of these corbels, many people are unsure exactly what is a "corbel" ? Essentially, a corbel is a piece of stone, or possibly timber, which juts out of a wall to carry incumbent weight. But, they do much more than just this , as they also allure and provide one with a brief yet detailed look into a buildings past. The name derives from a French word meaning crow, because of the corbel's beaklike shape.

Notable examples of corbels worldwide include:

* The Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris

* Maes Howe, a particularly fine Neolithic chambered cairn in Scotland.

* Gallarus Oratory, an early Christian church in Ireland, is built with corbel vaulting.
