Italianate Profiles
Italianate architecture took hold in America from roughly 1840 to 1885, borrowing the bracketed eaves, tall narrow windows, and richly curved profiles of Renaissance Italian villas. Italianate moulding favors sweeping ogee curves, bold scroll brackets, paired window hoods, and crown assemblies that project further from the wall than any other 19th-century style.

Mason’s Mill carries 45 Italianate profiles suited to brownstone restorations, Hudson Valley villas, and the bracketed wood-frame Italianates common across the Midwest. They pair naturally with our Victorian profiles when restoring transitional homes built in the 1860s and 1870s.
Pecky Cypress Rough Lumber
$$$
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.
No returns will be accepted on any custom-milled Pecky Cypress products including S2S, S3S, S4S and molding millwork.
