A fabric-covered chair rail for creating a horizontal waistline along the interior walls of a room or passage that is both protective and decorative. The chair rail for a given interior is formed by pieces whose lengths are appropriate to the interior walls. Each piece is constituted by a molding having upper and lower edges which are separated from the base to define therewith inlet jaws communicating with an internal storage channel running the full length of the molding. Overlying the molding whose base abuts the wall to be railed and conforming to the contour thereof is a replaceable band of fabric having upper and lower margins which initially extend beyond the edges of the molding. The fabric margins are inserted in the jaws of the upper and lower edges of the molding and are stuffed into the storage channels whereby the fabric fully covers the exposed portion of the molding and presents a smooth and attractive appearance.
