- 1鐵藝、鍛鐵細工(欄杆、大門等彎成花樣的鐵件)
Ironwork is iron that has been shaped — often bent, twisted, or cut — into fences, gates, , balconies, and other fittings that are meant to look attractive as well as strong. Think of an old garden gate with curls and leaves in the metal, or a balcony with a pattern: that is ironwork. The picture is decorative iron, not a pile of tools in a shed.
