8. Decorative spindlesNothing says coastal chic like a balcony overlooking the deep blue sea. Or in this case, the good ol’ swimming pool. In this spacious Goan balcony, the wrought iron spindles take on an artful touch, reserving embellishments for the base and top, while opening up towards the middle to offer a generous view of the outdoors. The railings have been used on a balcony here, but they would make an equally charming match with a staircase.

5. An artful touchWrought iron has long been used to model railing posts and lattices. Apart from providing security, they bring in an ornate flavour, as in the above balcony. Iron units can also be painted in silver, bronze or gold for a shiny finish that appeals to the traditional Indian decor style. Look through more images of wrought iron railings
