This Pro Value Traditional Fluted Island Column is a decorative wood column designed for island ends, peninsula returns, and cabinet panels where a traditional architectural presence is the goal.
A plain column face reads as trim. A fluted column reads as architecture. The vertical grooves running the length of this column create the shadow lines that give traditional kitchen design its sense of permanence and craft, and they do that work on an exposed island end, at the base of a range hood support, or at the transition between a cabinet run and open space. At 3-1/2 inches square, this is a fuller section that presents a substantial column face rather than a slim applied sliver, so it suits locations where the column will be seen from more than one angle.
Maple is a tight-grained, light-toned hardwood that finishes consistently and is one of the most common species in North American kitchen cabinetry programs. Because this column is supplied unfinished, it can be finished in place alongside the surrounding cabinetry rather than being stained or painted to approximate it. Ordering in the same species as the adjacent doors and frames gives the closest starting point for a coordinated result, which is why this program offers the same column forms in cherry and alder as well.
Cabinet shops specifying a traditional kitchen will reach for this column at the exposed end of an island or a tall cabinet run, where the design calls for something more resolved than a flat panel. Designers working on furniture-style kitchens, butler's pantries, or formal dining built-ins will find the fluted profile appropriate to traditional and transitional period styles. At 36 inches it suits standard counter height, which is the common application, though the finished height will depend on the base and the counter above it. This is a decorative column, applied to framing or a panel face, and it carries no structural load.
At 3-1/2 inches square, this is a fuller section, not a thin applied half. It is still applied to a cabinet panel or frame rather than standing free, but it presents a substantial column face on all visible sides.
No. This is a decorative wood column with no stated load rating. It is not a structural post and should not be used in place of one.
Standard counter height. The finished height of the installation depends on the base and the countertop thickness, which vary by job.
This SKU is maple. The Traditional Columns program also includes cherry and alder versions of the same column.
Choose this column where the design calls for a fluted traditional profile at an island end or cabinet transition, and finish it alongside the surrounding millwork for a result that reads as original to the space.
