This early 19th century Georgian antique wrought iron pedestrian gate would bring an instant classic look to the front of a home, or garden. Its original working latch, and hinge eyes illustrate grand English craftsmanship. The unusual shapes, and scrolls have stood the test of time.
Wrought Iron Gates
Gates and ironwork made from wrought iron have stood the test of time. This traditional method of craftsmanship sees the metal heated to a high temperature and then hammered into shape by a blacksmith’s hand, creating a robust and durable finish. The more wrought iron is worked, the stronger it becomes, making some of the most ornate antique gates some of the strongest. Large scale commercial production of wrought iron products ended in the mid 1970s due to the expensive and time-consuming nature of blacksmithing, making wrought iron gates true antiques, showcasing talented craftsmanship of the past.
