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

Thanks.
If you're considering the skinny casings and under 3" rosettes at the
box stores, they look really tacky next to real Victorian wood work.
My neighbor is rehabbing a real Victorian and is getting a lot of wood
work from our local historic salvage operation. I think he learned his
lesson from first using the box store material. You may have a
builders salvage operation in your area, so check out the
possibilities. HTH
