Ceiling Medallions

Image
I found this old plaster ceiling medallion over a year ago and can't decide if it's too much for my dining room.   It's quite heavy and I'm not sure even how to affix it to the ceiling. I know there are a lot of lightweight options out there but this is the real thing. I'm reluctant to go the the trouble and expense of installing it only to find out that it's just too much for my small dining room. Our ceilings are 8 ft. and we have a substantial crystal chandelier in there now.  I'm worried that it will make the room feel top heavy. We have several low voltage recessed lights in the ceiling which light up the table and the sideboard.  This is our dining room table when it's not covered with it's floor length fringed burlap tablecloth. It definitely goes with the look & feel of the room's decor, I just don't want to go too far if you know what I mean.  It's important to know when to stop. What do you think? ...
