What are the Differences Between Cast Iron and Wrought Iron?
The general public’s picture of wrought iron is of a blacksmith hammering wrought iron on an anvil with a coal forge in the background. Small irregularities are part of the charm and value since wrought ironwork is forged by hand. Artistic patterns and curves are the evidence of the smith’s hammer in true wrought iron.
Finally, a “post cap” is sometimes necessary to both improve the post’s visual aesthetics while preventing debris and rainwater from entering the hollow interior. Water infiltration can quickly trigger rust to start developing inside the iron fence post. Therefore, caps provide a straightforward way to avoid the issue.
In a nutshell, aluminum offers convenience, but wrought iron rewards your care with timeless elegance and hard-to-match durability. You get out what you put in, after all.
