Pair of wrought iron grilles, Spanish School, 19th Century - Wrought iron. Measures 86 x 13 x 6 cm each. Pair of grilles made with twisted bars arranged horizontally and joined by vertical elements that structure the whole with remarkable compositional balance. The decoration focuses on central geometric motifs with a rhomboidal profile and small volutes that lend visual rhythm to the design. The twisting of the bars creates plays of light and shadow that enrich the metal surface, while the restrained ornamentation reflects the tradition of utilitarian and architectural wrought iron of the 19th century. The execution demonstrates technical mastery in ironwork, combining functionality and decorative sense within a popular and artisanal aesthetic. These pieces constitute an interesting testament to traditional blacksmithing applied to the domestic and stately architecture of their time. Measures: 86 x 13 cm.
