Colonial Revival is the most widely built style in American history, running from the 1880s through today and accounting for the millwork in millions of homes — from 1920s Cape Cods to modern center-hall colonials. The style consolidates Georgian, Federal, and Greek Revival elements into a more accessible vocabulary: clean crown profiles, fluted casings with corner blocks or mitered returns, six-panel doors, and chair rails sized for everyday rooms. Mason’s Mill carries 43 Colonial Revival profiles that match the standard millwork found in pre-war and post-war traditional homes. This is the right category for most “we want it to look colonial” renovations and additions where strict period accuracy isn’t required.
This pecky cypress from Louisiana gets it's characteristic look from a condition caused by a fungal attack that causes long, narrow burrows or cavities in the wood. The fungus primarily attacks older cypress trees from the “canopy” or “umbrella” down. Once the tree is cut down, or harvested, the fungal attack stops, leaving the beautiful, unique pecky patterns.

In rustic or knotty grades of lumber, there will be a percentage of degrade during the milling process. Some knots may shake lose and/or fall out during the milling process. Mason’s Mill is not liable for these defects in moldings produced from knotty grades of lumber.
Pecky Cypress will lack consistency in the amount of “peck” throughout the piece as well as from piece to piece. Pecky Cypress is characteristically brittle. Some splitting in millwork and S4S should be expected and accounted for.
