Excerpt from Bent Ironwork: For Beginners and Proficients The art of working decoratively in Bent Iron is one of recent introduction and increasing favour. It is essentially an art for the home circle, its practice is not accompanied by noise or mess, and though not exactly easy - since no art that is worth practising is easy - it is at least not difficult of acquisi tion by any pupil who will give time and trouble to learning the elements, who possesses deft fingers and a taste and eye for decorative form.
