Georgian architecture ran from roughly 1700 to 1780 and remains the most enduring template for formal American homes — symmetrical facades, paneled doors, and richly layered interior trim. Georgian moulding is built up from multiple distinct elements: ogees, ovolos, beads, and fillets stacked into crown and cornice assemblies, with raised six- or eight-panel doors set into wide cased openings.
Mason’s Mill stocks 45 historically faithful Georgian profiles ready to run in any hardwood or softwood. These are the right starting point for any colonial-era restoration, formal study or library remodel, or new construction aiming for traditional New England, Mid-Atlantic, or Tidewater proportions.
All of our antique pine comes from reclaimed lumber and has a natural patina look, saw marks, knots, nail holes and that distinct rustic feel. The sapwood varies in width, and is whitish to yellowish, orange white or pale yellow. The heartwood is light yellow, orange or reddish-brown, and is resinous. The marked contrast between early wood and late wood is clearly shown in the growth rings.
All “reclaimed” or antique pine comes with defects and character markings present. Every piece of lumber has a history.
