Ever wonder how architects & builders of old could ever afford the fun ornaments adorning their creations? Why, mass production, of course! In an era when ornament was king, a plethora of firms specializing in inexpensive mass market architectural ornament arose to meet demand.

One such firm was the Fischer & Jirouch Co. of Cleveland, Ohio whose decorative ornament catalog is featured above. In need of a renaissance ceiling? Fischer & Jirouch could provide it! Fancy an Adam style ceiling medallion? Fischer & Jirouch had that covered too! How about a gothic screen? Fischer & Jirouch had that one down as well and unlike so many others, they’re still a going concern! That means the perfect ceiling medallion, pilaster, or ornamental ceiling can be yours!
