Ogee

In architecture, an ogee is a kind of wooden molding, the wooden strip that is frequently used as a decoration at the joint where a wall meets the floor or the ceiling, that is carved in an S-shaped curve.

An ogee is also short for an ogee clock, a common kind of weight-driven antique pendulum clock. An ogee clock is rectangular, with ogee style molding that circles a central glass door, which protects the clock face and the pendulum. The door usually carries a painted scene in the area beneath the face. Ogee clocks are one of the most commonly encountered varieties of antique clocks.
