Wrought Iron

 

The term "wrought iron" might be conjuring images of the Eiffel Tower, but you can add that same beautifully structured awe to your home.  The word "wrought" is an archaic form of the word "to work," so "wrought iron" actually means "worked iron".  Pieces of ornamental worked iron can be used on fireplaces and doors to add refinement and beauty. 

 

 

Below are two fireplace covers with rich detail that show magnificently against the glow of a fire.

 

 

 

 

Here, entire doors are fashioned, one with only wrought iron that leads into a wine room and the other combined with glass into the wood frame of the door to a home office.

 

 

 

Reminiscent of speakeasy days, a wrought iron grate covering a closable window on a front door adds character and style.
