grillwork
Ornamental metal bars
Grillwork is decorative metalwork made of bars or slats arranged in a pattern, typically used for gates, fences, balconies, or window covers.
The term emphasizes the ornamental quality of the structure rather than mere function: The old courthouse featured elaborate wrought-iron grillwork.
Also spelled as two words: grill work.
