ceiling rose

Ornamental light base

A ceiling rose is a decorative disk or medallion mounted on a ceiling, typically surrounding a light fixture or chandelier.

Usually made of plaster or molded plastic, ceiling roses feature ornamental patterns—often floral or geometric—and are characteristic of Victorian and traditional interior design: The original ceiling rose dates to 1890.
