DESIGN DETAILS- WROUGHT IRON Baroque and Rococo were the periods of history with the most ornate wrought iron. This type of ironwork, literally meant “worked iron”. Decorative Ironwork design was deeply rooted in classical and medieval allusions to mythology, legends, religion and botanical forms. In Europe Cathedrals in Spain had an ornate iron around the screens; in France, the decorative wrought iron with rich scrollings and bold foliations were used in balconies, stair railings and gateways. But it was in the Arts and Crafts, Art Deco and Arg Nouveau movements that wrought iron had its glory days with the emphasis on creativity and craftsmanship. Wrought iron still has its place in modern interiors today, through the use of furniture, balustrades, lighting and accessories it brings character to a home, forged by a skilled blacksmith it can be designed to fit any interior. . . .
