Coving repair

We are in the process of re-wallpapering and painting our sitting room. We have a plain cornice running aroung the room from the edge of the ceiling about 7" deep. Some of the plaster has come away and we will need to re-skim it.

We have been unsuccessful in searching for a coving trowel to help with the skimming. Have you any idea what we should be using?
