For protectively and aesthetically surroundably lining various sizes of office furniture rectangular openings for upwardly emergent electrical cords, there is provided an apt and unusually readily universally installable escutcheon grommet. The escutcheon grommet has two transversely extending end-panels for abuttable attachment to two opposed upright-ends of the furniture opening and each is centrally provided with an end-ledge, has a longitudinally extending and cross-sectionally regular rear-panel of selectable length and which is abuttable at a third end of the furniture opening and which is removably attachable to the end-panels, and has a cover-plate removably restable upon the end-ledges and rear-panel and having a convex fore-end for non-chafably confronting the upwardly emergent electrical cords. If the office furniture rectangular opening has a tangibly fully-closed fourth end, there is a grommet front-panel thereat and provided with a convex trailing-face so that the upwardly emergent electrical cord or cords are locatable in non-chafing condition between the cover-plate fore-end and the front-panel trailing-face.
