It looks awesome now that I have it up. If the medallion had a “split” option, I would have bought that, but I took a chance on cutting it myself. Installing this light fixture a couple years ago was a pain, and I didnt want to have to take it down to install this.I used a box-cutter straight edge knife, and cut the medallion middle circle completely out to fit my chandelier base mount, it’s over 5 inches wide. It turned out to fit perfectly when I cut out that inner ring.Then I used the same box cutting blade to cut the medallion from middle to one end, so just 1 slit, not a full half and half. I was nervous I might rip the foam or crack it, but I was feeling brave and didnt want to deal with sealing and painting 2 cut lines if i could help it. I then gave it one coat of paint in my ceiling color, including on the interior cut-lines I made, just in case.I pre-drilled drywall screws evenly around (3 or 4), just so they were lodged in the medallion but not poking out the backside. Then I squeezed out squiggles of construction adhesive along the back.Then I needed a second person to help me twist open the cut I created, at a slight angle and feed the medallion through the chandelier pole. It worked! Then I had him press and hold it to the ceiling while I screwed in the drywall screws to the ceiling the rest of the way.I then covered the screw heads with white wood filler (hey it’s what I had) and filled in the one cut with the wood filler. The ceiling is a bit over 9 feet high and you cannot see the wood filler and cuts, so i didnt bother painting them. I love it, it’s beautiful.

We've renovated a couple 1920 homes and have added these to any of the rooms that need a pop of character. These are lightweight and easy to get into place. There's a lot of detail on them which creates a beautiful focal point. Once caulked and painted these look like original details of the old homes. They do add depth to your light fixtures so be sure to have long enough hardware to secure. Sometimes we've needed 1" longer screws to secure to the boxes which we easily find at any hardware store.
