– CUSTOM COLUMN SIZING –
MATERIAL & MANUFACTURING PROCESS
Western Red Cedar, Clear Heart Redwood, pine, poplar, & mahogany are just
a few of the popular wood species utilized for our Architectural Wood Columns.
If you desire another wood species, please inform us, and it will be our pleasure to
accomodate. To ensure that our wood columns are of the highest quality, we
process each order with individualized care and attention. First, the column's
height and diameter are entered into our computer system which has been
programmed to calculate the exact proportions necessary to produce your
beautiful exterior wood columns and architectural interior wood columns.
COLUMN SHAFT
Plain, Tapered column shaft. The Empire with Necking wood column shaft
is architecturally correct according to Vignola's classical column specifications.
Select, also, from our distinct column design shapes to match your interior
or exterior architectural specifications. We use Western Red Cedar, Clear Heart
Redwood, pine, poplar, mahogany, teak or any other wood species desired. Wood
materials are available in both solid board and finger-joint form. Each column
is made to your exact specifications. We recommend using either finger-joint
redwood or cedar for interior columns that will be stained or left natural with a
clear protective finish to display the grain of the wood.
CAPITAL, BASE MOLDING & PLINTH
CAPITAL: Design 138 is characterized by an Empire capital with composite
ornate necking. Standard materials are polyurethane for the smaller column sizes
and fiberglass for the larger column sizes. Load-bearing qualities. Wood capitals
are available for all sizes at an upcharge. We are able to replicate for historic
restoration if you have as much as a quarter of the existing capital including
corner and any side design. Please contact a Chadsworth Sales Consultant for
additional capital materials and information. BASE MOLDING: Design 138
has an Ionic (Attic) Base. Base materials follow the same parameters as the capitals.
PLINTH: We offer a variety of Plinth materials, specific to your column
sizes and interior or exterior applications.
