Hallway Ceiling Rose Restoration

Remember to follow all progress on Intragram! https://www.instagram.com/georgianrenovation/

Upon purchase of the house, the hallway ceiling rose resembled several non-descript  blobs of paint on the ceiling. Micheal Daly of Plaster Moldings had a little tinker with it for 20 minutes after finishing the restored cornicing, unearthing a fully intact original plaster leaf:



I had a go myself subsequently, followed by the painters, but it became more and more brittle as time went on. Micheal came back and offered to restore it for FREE! He refused to take any money from me and had it done in about 90 minutes flat:







Some of the pieces that fell off when the painters were working on it:


Micheal decided to remove it entirely, pick away the 200 years of paint and then reinstate it with plaster of Paris:





The rose discoloured at first with the first few coats of paint:









Absolutely delighted with the end result!

  2. Beautiful! I would not think to renew it like that! I have a similar ceiling by the lamp. Maybe I will use your idea :) I'm just starting a renovation with home expert ( https://www.thehomeexpert.uk/offer / bathrooms / bathroom-design / ). I would like to create the whole bathroom in such an old style :) I hope that we will achieve this effect :)
