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.
Offered in prime and FAS grade, our walnut, also known as “black American walnut”, comes out of Indiana. Walnut is a beautiful, tough, hard timber with a medium density. Walnut is the standard timber for rifle butts and gun stocks.
It is extensively used for high-quality furniture, cabinet making and interior trim, boat building, musical instruments and clock cases.
