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.
Thermally Modified Ash Rough Lumber
Thermally modified ash rough lumber offers the classic, timeless sophistication of real wood combined with the exceptional durability that results from the thermal modification process. When it comes to rot resistance and stability, this ash rough lumber will take on any other real wood product, including tropical woods and other modified hardwoods. Meticulous milling means clean lines, tight seams and easy installation.
The thermal wood process modifies each board completely, all the way through to the core, leading to unequalled durability and stability without sacrificing the natural qualities of real wood.
Ash is regularly used for furniture, flooring, doors, architectural millwork and moulding, kitchen cabinets, paneling, tool handles, baseball bats, hockey sticks, skis, oars and turnings. The sapwood is light-colored to nearly white and the heartwood varies from greyish or light brown, to pale yellow streaked with brown. The wood is generally straight-grained with a coarse uniform texture.
The degree and availability of light-colored sapwood, and other properties, will vary according to the growing regions.
