Elliptical ogee molding plane comprised of three parts, a rectangular wooden body with a ogee profile (a), a wooden wedge that tapers to a point at the bottom and is rounded at the top (b), and an iron with a curved blade (c). The wedge and the iron fit together inside of an angled cutout inside the plane's body and the wedge holds the iron in place as the plane runs across the wood surface below. Stamped on the toe of the plane is "W. THORPE", "S. FOSTER", "B. FROGATT", "W. ROYLE", "GG", and "I BLOWER". Stamped on the heel of the plane is "W. ROYLE", "I BLOWER", and "W. THORPE".
Ogee molding planes are used to mold the profile of a workpiece. The ogee profile consists of a curve shaped like an 'S', or a double curve inversed around an inflection point. This can be combined with any other detail, like beads or fillets, to create unique ogee profiles. Ogee molding planes can be used to give a sophisticated finish to baseboards, doorways, and furniture trimmings.
