Ironwork – Part II – Being a Continuation of the First Handbook, and Comprising from the Close of the Mediaeval Period to the End of the Eighteenth Century, Excluding English Work 

This vintage book contains part II of a complete survey of the artistic working of iron in Great Britain from the earliest times until 1922. Profusely illustrated and full of fascinating historical information, this volume is highly recommended for modern readers with an interest in the history and development of artistic ironwork. Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern edition complete with a specially commissioned new introduction on metal work. Originally published in 1922.
