The Early Ironwork Of Charleston - Hardcover

by Alston Deas (Author)

This text contains a fascinating analysis of the decorative ironwork of Charleston, South Carolina. Charleston writer and photographer, William P. Baldwin portrays the city's wonderful ironwork creations through his artistic eye, describing the oldest balcony on Broad Street, the blossom and peacock scrolls of city hall, and many more hidden treasures waiting to be found on a casual stroll through the city streets. This antique text will greatly appeal to those with an interest in Charleston and in decorative ironwork and architecture in general, and it is a book not to be missed by collectors of literature of this ilk. Many antiquarian books such as this are becoming increasingly hard to come by and expensive, and it is with this in mind that we are proudly republishing this book now in an affordable modern edition complete with a new introduction.
