Paperback. Etat : Near fine. Quarto with glossy black and white pictorial wraps; 141 pages: illustrations; index; 28 cm. "Ornamental ironwork is an important but often overlooked feature of nineteenth and early twentieth century architecture. Iron fences, balconies, window grilles, roof crestings, stairways, and storefronts protect, support and add character to buildings great and small. Because decorative ironwork usually appears on prominent facades or in accessible interiors, it stands much like a collection of public sculpture, freely available for the examination and enjoyment of all passersby.

It explains how to distinguish between wrought and cast iron and points out the many motifs that master ironworkers created. It reveals how early blacksmiths fashioned delicate railings to grace Federal-style residences and how foundries turned out thousands of prefabricated iron building parts that were at once economical and decorative. Many readers will be intrigued by the stunning ironwork inspired by the Arts and Crafts movement."--Back cover.
