Can I put victorian style casing i.e. fluted casing and rosettes, in a

appropriate style for the house (which happens to be more
traditional). Thanks.

Sarah said to God: "How can I bear a child when my husband is so old?"
(later)
God said to Abraham: "Sarah asked how could she bear a child since she is so
old...?"

The rabbis hold that God lied to Abraham so that maritial discord should not
occur.

Go with the rosettes. Maybe gargoyles.
