How to select the proper size ceiling medallion?
To select the proper size ceiling medallion, consider 3 factors – 1) The size of your fixture – Medallions should be larger or smaller than the diameter of your fixture, but preferrably not the same size. 2) The height of the ceiling – The higher your ceiling, the larger the medallion that you can use. For example, a two story foyer can easily use a 35 – 37″ medallion, due to the ceiling height. 3) The size of the room – The larger your room, the larger the medallion that you can use. For a typical Dining Room with an 8 – 9 foot ceiling, a medallion that is 26 – 32 inches in diameter will usually work well.
