Chelsea Decorative Metal Company out of Houston, Texas manufactures and distributes these pressed tin ceilings. They have original designs that date back to the 1800's and are stamped on a 600 ton press which makes for excellent quality. The material is tin-plated steel, which has wonderful paint retention. The sheets come 2' x 4' for easy installation which the do-it-yourselfers love. There are also 2' x 2' sheets for suspended ceiling.

The patterns come in 3", 6", 12" or 24" repeat patterns. Cornice, like a crown molding, is also available and come in four-foot lengths, but vary in width from 2" to 9".

Bedrooms, hallways and even bathrooms are not immune to the attractiveness that tin ceilings provide. To the delight of many designers, doing a back splash has become quite popular.
