Greek Revival moulding defined American architecture from roughly 1825 to 1860, drawing directly on the columns, pediments, and bold flat planes of ancient Greek temples. The look is heavy, symmetrical, and confident — wide flat fascias, deep crowns with strong dentil or ovolo accents, and door casings built to read as miniature temple fronts.
Mason’s Mill stocks 44 historically accurate Greek Revival profiles drawn from our 8,000-profile library, available in poplar, pine, oak, mahogany, and other hardwoods. These profiles are the right choice for antebellum farmhouses, Southern plantations, and any restoration project where the original trim ran in wide, flat, classical bands.
Surfaced 3 sides, two smooth faces and one straight edge for optimal lumber yield. An S&B grade in soft maple, it is commonly referred to as silver maple, red maple and box elder. The sapwood in the soft maples is considerably wider than in the hard maples and has a lighter heartwood color. Stains well and may be polished to an excellent finish, typical uses for soft maple include domestic flooring, furniture, millwork, piano parts and sporting goods.
