Pair Mid-19th Century French Hand-Forged Wrought Iron Framed Panels were painstakingly crafted by an obviously talented metal smith out of red-hot iron to create an artistic window accent that also happens to be exceedingly secure!  Hand-forged during the Napoleon III Period which was the beginning of the heydays of the Belle Epoque, each panel is constructed using rivets which is difficult, tedious, and requires considerable skill, but results in a finished work that literally transcends time itself!  The classically-inspired architecture of the works are undeniable, as is the subtle French touch in the elegant scrollwork and curvatures.  Each is mounted in its original solid pine framework, and because they are hand-forged, are very slightly different in size which is only immediately apparent when they're placed right next to each other.  Perfect for adding a timeless Old World touch to your interior or exterior decor!
