Ceiling Medallions

By adding decorative ceiling medallions, a room is easily recreated from ordinary to elegant. They are one of the most sought architectural accessories in lighting today!

Ceiling medallions can be used to feature the base of a chandelier, or to highlight a ceiling fan. When used to complement crown moldings, medallions add an artistic touch.

•Medallions make an excellent addition to any chandelier sale because they add value and benefit to the purchase.

•Medallions are crafted of a high-density polyurethane and are lightweight and maintenance free.

Ceiling medallions are easy to size!

•For a dining room, entryway, or bedroom, choose a medallion that has a slightly larger diameter than the light fixture.

•For a powder room or a small hallway, choose a medallion that is smaller than the light fixture.

•It is not recommended that the medallion is the same size as the fixture, as this creates a “column” effect that perceptually lowers the ceiling and makes the room seem smaller.

•Be aware that medallions are ordered with either 4”, 1” or no center opening at all. This opening is to accommodate the canopy plate which mounts the fixture to the ceiling. A 4” opening is standard to fit most fixtures.
