Beadboard and wainscoting are the workhorse millwork of American interiors, used in every era from Federal-period kitchens to modern farmhouses and mudrooms. The profiles include classic 1.5″ and 3.5″ beaded plank, V-groove and shiplap variants, plus the chair rails, cap mouldings, and base shoes needed to finish a full wainscot run from floor to ceiling. Mason’s Mill stocks 30 beadboard and wainscoting profiles across multiple plank widths and bead spacings, runnable in poplar, pine, oak, and other species. Use these to wrap a mudroom, finish a Victorian kitchen ceiling, build out a porch ceiling, or panel a powder room in any historical style.
Ash is regularly used for furniture, flooring, doors, architectural millwork and moulding, kitchen cabinets, paneling, tool handles, baseball bats, hockey sticks, skis, oars and turnings. The sapwood is light-colored to nearly white and the heartwood varies from greyish or light brown, to pale yellow streaked with brown. The wood is generally straight-grained with a coarse uniform texture.
The degree and availability of light-colored sapwood, and other properties, will vary according to the growing regions.
