The term “wrought iron” often gets misused today to refer to any metalwork – often mild steel or cast iron – that’s designed to have the precise, intricate appearance of the classical wrought iron designs from the nineteenth century. However, to truly be wrought iron, the metal has to have been forged, heated, and hammered by a trained blacksmith, a process that’s become much rarer today than it was in the past. The hand craftsmanship that goes into its design and construction makes wrought iron a truly unique and special material today.
