"It's the American profile," according to Peter Kenny, curator of American decorative arts for New York's Metropolitan Museum of Art. Ovals, ellipses, arches, and reeded columns characterized the period. Federal style is also sometimes known as “Adams style” and features more delicate ornamentation than its Georgian style predecessor. It’s popularity took off following the Revolutionary War and lasted well into the 1820’s.
Complimenting the traditional details of today’s architecture, federal style molding continues to adds elegance to any interior just as it did some 200 years ago.
