This book features designs selected from a 19th century catalogue of A. Durenne Metallurgical Establishments, Inc., a leader in the design and fabrication of ironwork for both public and private structures and fixtures.
The images, mainly of cast iron work, show the huge range of designs and a range of the individual elements that the company had to offer at a time when ironwork was in demand for the burgeoning towns and cities all over the world.
All illustrations are line drawings, reproduced from the original catalogue.
