A stone coffered ceiling is a decorative ceiling pattern made of interlocking rectangular or square panels (coffers) of stone. This type of ceiling is typically found in grand buildings such as courthouses, churches, and other public buildings. The panels are often carved with intricate designs, and the cavities created by the coffers can be painted or stained in different colors to create a more impressive effect. Stone coffered ceilings can give a room a sense of grandeur and elegance, and they are usually designed to complement the overall architecture of a building.
