Classic design reaches new heights.
The Roman Doric order features an increase of decorative molding over the Tuscan Order. Vignola’s Denticulated Doric Cap has a stepped, three-fillet support of the echinus instead of the single-fillet support of the Tuscan Order. The Doric base is similar to the Tuscan, but the addition of bead above the torus molding is an elegant embellishment. According to Vignola, the height of the Doric Column including cap and base should be eight diameters. Vignola Denticulated Doric is imitated closely from the Theater of Marcellus.

Our exterior columns and paint-grade interior
columns are fashioned from select, kiln-dried Western Pine staves (or
clear, all-heart Redwood or Western Red Cedar by custom order). Use of
finger-jointed pieces conserves valuable wood resources, reduces
potential for warping and bow, and helps prevent checking or cracking
of finished surfaces. (Solid-stave assembly available by custom order.)
Stain-grade interior columns are fashioned
primarily from solid-stave Red Oak, Poplar, Hard Maple, Pine, Cherry,
Redwood, Mahogany, and Black Walnut lumber and feature matching wood
Caps & Bases. Call one of our sales reps for pricing on
Roman Doric style stain-grade columns.
