round ornaments/adornments
It's difficult to know here, for we don't know the dimensions or anything about the two "ornamients/adornments" of the floor above. Hope this helps.
If they're small, I'd use "ornaments", but if they're larger, i.e. for decorating the walls or suchlike, I'd use "adornments".
