By Bonnie Contreras


Wrought iron plant holders are stylish decorative options that stand the test of time. A vast array of designs, styles and sizes can be found to complement any home or business interior, outdoor entertainment space, garden or lawn. Using an attractive planter or stand will accent the natural beauty of potted flowers and plants, gardens and landscaped areas. Plant holders made of wrought iron are ideal for displaying greenery.

Ironworking began thousands of years ago, according to historical evidence. During the many decades, lots of items were handmade by ironworkers including shackles, weapons, wheels, gates and furniture. After heating the ore, using one process or another, it was shaped and formed by ironworkers. The process of ironworking is time consuming and labor intensive.

Many years ago, the products were very heavy due to purity. Today, most items contain a notable percentage of other materials. The modern material is sometimes called mild-steel. Most holders for plants and other products now being sold are made of cast-iron or mild-steel. Both metals have an old- fashioned, authentic appearance and are quite durable.

Flower pots, urns, stands and ironworks of all sorts are available to complement any interior decorating style. Large and small vases, eye-catching centerpieces, staggered and spiral stands, and free-standing and wall-mounted planters are some of the decorative ironwork planters that can enhance the appearance of any room. From the kitchen to the bedroom, they add texture and dimension to almost any decorating style. They are a great option for accessorizing the office, also.

Plant holders made of wrought iron and other accessories are versatile decorative options for stylish interiors. Designs and styles range from primitive to sophisticated. Some examples are basic and plain, while other designs are exquisitely ornate with elegant scrolling. The availability of such variety makes these items ideal for wilderness cabins and resorts as well as the most posh homes and businesses.

Outdoor areas are perfect places to use ironwork accessories and accents. Porches, window sills, flower beds, patios, pool decks, gardens and other landscaped spots around any property can be enhanced with properly displayed flowers and foliage. These kinds of planters and stands are sturdy and stylish to ensure many years of visual appeal and enjoyment.

Mild-steel and cast-iron planter stands, beautiful flower pots and ornate urns complement any outdoor furniture and fixtures. Displaying greenery properly will provide texture, color and warmth in outside living spaces. Properly placed ferns, vines, flowers and other potted plants will help create a warm, inviting space for guests to gather. Most ironwork decorative accessories are made to withstand weather conditions allowing for infinite decorating options. Most products are easy to clean and most can be refreshed with paint.
