Ceiling Medallions as Classic Architectural Accents
Ceiling medallions are classic ceiling accents and were used extensively by decorators,
designers and architects from the early eighteen century to the beginning of the twentieth
century. With their rich detailing and ornate, deep relief patterns, ceiling medallions were
especially favored by the Victorians. They added ceiling medallions to the most principal
rooms of the house.
Traditionally the size and details of the ceiling medallion reflected the importance of the room as
well as status of a household. Ceiling medallions, like
ceiling domes, are often featured above
