Examples of ornamental metal work
Examples of ornamental metal work by Henry Shaw, engraved and published in London in 1836 by William Pickering, a plate book of architectural decoration for craftsmen and designers working in metal. The plates show bar and rail patterns with rosettes and scrolls, a studded door panel with lion-head and rosette mounts, a spear-tipped finial with volute scrolls, and a railing with palmette finials and shell bases, all drawn in fine line that a designer could adapt directly for cast or wrought ironwork.
