Room 113: Ironwork

Ironwork, room 113

The ironwork gallery is the longest in the Museum and provides a striking setting for the national collection of European decorative wrought and cast iron. It is hugely diverse: from keys and locks to large architectural pieces, from a Byzantine folding seat to a bench by the contemporary American artist blacksmith Albert Paley.

Room 113 is on Level 3 of the V&A South Kensington.
