| 40 plates of meticulously rendered designs replicate authentic ironwork projects that span some 600 years of metalcrafting. Patterns selected from English churches, chapels, tombs, castles, and other architectural sites depict 12th-century hinges, 15th-century grilles and railings, and 17th-century knockers, handles, latches, and other ornamental elements.
Ideal for today's metal crafters looking to recreate the decorative architectural accessories from an earlier era, these royalty-free patterns will also be of value to artists, architects, and designers.
