Wrought iron

What is wrought iron? From a home decorating standpoint, the term wrought iron commonly refers to ornamental ironwork pieces that are created for decoration. According to Wikipedia, the official definition of wrought iron is commercially pure iron that has been worked into a finished product. However, home decor that is referred to as "wrought iron" today is commonly made of mild steel, which is a combination of iron and a small amount of carbon.  Mild steel has the same properties as iron - it is soft and easy to form - and it's also relatively inexpensive. 

In early times, wrought iron was used to help protect windows and doors from intruders in addition to being decorative in places such the Canterbury Cathedral and the Notre Dame de Paris. Home decorating with wrought iron really started increasing in popularity around the 16th century. From the most glorious castles of times past to the most common wall decor available today, wrought iron is a timeless material for items around the home, both indoors and outdoors.
