The Federal style — sometimes called Adam style after the Scottish brothers who popularized it — shaped American homes from roughly 1780 to 1830, just after independence. Where Georgian trim is robust and Greek Revival is heavy, Federal moulding is delicate and refined: slim reeded pilasters, fine bead-and-reel detailing, oval and elliptical motifs, and crisp, narrow profiles that feel almost neoclassical-jewelry in scale.
Mason’s Mill carries 44 Federal & Adam profiles suited to early Republic townhouses, New England center-hall colonials, and Charleston single houses. They pair beautifully with our Georgian and Greek Revival profiles when layering periods on a single restoration.
We keep this MC-50 CR7 chair rail and decorative moulding profile in stock in the (1-1/4 x 2-1/2") size in the wood species indicated below:
