Mild steel. And this caused some problems during the forging of some of the parts. One of the finials did not match the original because mild steel will not split as well as wrought iron.
at 1:21 the camera work they did attempted to cover the modern graffiti that would have taken us out of the "old age" mentality....cool to see it though
WOW! How wonderful to see the Yellin Shop again and all of these great smiths at work! Thanks so much for sharing this high quality, informative, historical film with the world!

Wroght irons aren't made like how they were made before. It's all china mass produced cold rolled, not wrought from hot solid bars.
