Small Ceiling Roses

Ceiling Roses Can Transform Your Room. Ceiling roses or medallions are decorative ornaments that provide the function of hiding the hole and mess made in the ceiling by the electrics and light fittings as they enter the ceiling. Traditionally they were made from plaster, but ours are all lightweight ceiling roses made from modern polymer materials. Frequently they are the only decorative element on a ceiling, and so can provide a real stand-out feature, transforming a room for relatively little cost.

Why Are Modern Materials Better Than Plaster? Modern materials are lightweight and not brittle, and therefore are much more easy to install than plaster which is heavy and easily damaged. That said, these materials have all of the beauty and moulding detail of a traditional plaster ceiling rose. Once painted, you won’t be able to see the difference.

How To Choose The Right Ceiling Rose. Sizing a ceiling rose traditionally worked in conjunction with the chandelier that hung from it. The eye sees both the rose and the chandelier as a single element. For proportion, the rose would be about the same width as the chandelier, or a bit smaller.

For style, if you are looking at traditional ceiling roses, you can either go plain – our best sellers just feature concentric circles – or introduce patterns to the room, like egg and dart or acanthus leaf. If you already have patterns on other features, like cornice, try not to clash with these and pick a style that is sympathetic. Unlike other products we can’t send out samples of ceiling roses unfortunately, but we are available on the end of the phone to help in any other way we can. So, if you need any advice, please do give us a call.
