Overview
Ceiling medallions add style and depth to your ceiling. Often
used to adorn light fixtures in dining rooms, they can be used
in any room of your home and are a simple and effective way to
add elegance and charm. For the simplest do-it-yourself installation,
two-piece ceiling medallions are available to fit around an existing
light fixture. Once fitted together, they look like a single
ceiling medallion.
When considering home improvement projects for your home,
the ceiling might not be your first thought, but adding accessories
to your ceiling is one of the best ways to add warmth and texture
to your home. Ceiling domes and ceiling tiles are also common
ceiling accessories that can be combined with ceiling medallions
to provide beautiful detail to your ceiling. Ceiling medallions
were used widely throughout Victorian architecture and 19th
century Southern homes so that the ceilings of these homes
may reflect the elegance of the home exterior and other interior
decoration. They are commonly used today to create the same
effect. Two-piece ceiling medallions are available in a variety
of classic styles, from simple concentric or floral designs
to other ornate patterns.
Two-piece ceiling medallions offer simple and affordable installation.
Once only made of expensive materials, ceiling medallions today
are commonly made of urethane materials, which are beautiful
and cost a fraction of the price of custom wood products and
millwork. Ceiling medallions made of urethane also require
little maintenance and will add lasting beauty and value to
your ceiling. There are a variety of inexpensive two-piece
ceiling medallions in different sizes available at the Architectural
Depot that will fit any ceiling, budget or schedule.
