round ornaments/adornments


Explicación:
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".

circular motifs


Explicación:
You might want to consider this possibility. A photo would certainly be helpful. I came across a few sites that translate "adorno circular" as "circular motif". Here's one of them: motif".http://www.worldlingo.com/ma/enwiki/es/Pu_pu_platter
Also here are some references to "circular motif" used in a context somewhat similar to yours.

Coincido  Evans (X): If they are referring to plaster mouldings, this is the right term. / you're right, roundels can be mouldings carved in stone too!

  -> I believe the entire facade is stone but that the term could be used. I'd love to see some photos!
