Do you ever dream of a house that is beautiful, timeless, and functional all at once? Most of the time, furniture helps you decide the aesthetic you want to bring to your home. Wrought iron furniture may be the perfect solution to curate interiors and outdoors with unique character, durability, and sophistication. With the ability to be forged in a variety of shapes and designs, this sturdy material will be a great addition to your home, terrace, garden, office, and commercial spaces. Iron isn’t just limited to
industrial style, and can be used to add an expression of beauty and art to many other styles including retro, farmhouse, traditional, modern, minimalist, etc.
What Is Wrought Iron Furniture?
In metallurgical terms, wrought iron is simply a product of 98% raw iron with very low carbon content and 1 to 2% of slag inclusions added to it. Wrought iron is malleable and ductile, thus easy to forge using tools while it is still hot. The word wrought is an archaic past participle of 'work', so wrought iron means worked iron. Unlike cast iron that is poured out and allowed to harden in specific molds, wrought iron is worked upon manually by hand tools, and shaped out in desired forms. You will be surprised to know that wrought iron was used as early as 2000 BC in Turkey. It is so tough, malleable and corrosion resistant, that you don’t have to worry about it breaking from high pressure or spending time on maintaining it. This combination of utilitarian qualities is something that you find only with wrought iron.
Wrought Iron Furniture for Your Home
Embodiment of strength, resilience and delicacy, wrought iron furniture is a heritage for your family which helps to execute an airy and refined look in your home. Wrought iron furniture could exude both feminine and masculine vibe depending on the patterns and shapes it is forged into. Simple, straight and clean lines work best for minimalist style homes, and ornate scrollwork impart a more elaborate and traditional flair.
Wrought Iron Furniture for Your Outdoors
Wrought iron looks impeccable outdoors. Around the outdoor firepit or pool area, old-world and timeless furniture like club chairs, sofas, stools, and coffee tables made out of wrought iron frames offer endless décor ideas. With plush cushions to complement, wrought iron patio furniture with high maneuvering capacity can turn your outdoors into one of the most comfortable and convenient spots to relax and unwind.

outdoor furniture along with swings and gliders that feature curves and scrolling can be used as statement pieces in the open air to fit into the traditional design aesthetic.

In large bedrooms, both queen-sized or king-sized iron canopy beds go well with country or English Tudor styles and can be paired with accent nightstands, bedside tables, and vintage style monochromatic lamps.
Wrought Iron Benches
A wrought iron bench with its versatile design can be placed outdoors — in the garden, porch, and patio; or indoors — in the kitchen, dining room, bedroom or mudroom. Placing industrial styled benches made of wrought iron and solid wood will offer a delicate traditional look and vibrancy to your space. Wrought iron benches are perfect to create that dreamy and romantic spot in your backyard that you can further enhance by decorating with wrought iron stools and end tables that you can place your favorite planters or terrariums on, tall lanterns on the grass, ethereal fabric draped over tree branches, string lights and more.
