metal furniture

Iron chairs, tables

Metal furniture is furniture made primarily from metal—steel, iron, aluminum, or wrought iron—rather than wood or upholstery.

The term covers everything from industrial shelving to patio chairs to bed frames.

Metal furniture suggests durability and a utilitarian or modern aesthetic: The office was outfitted with gray metal furniture.

Outdoor metal furniture often features weather-resistant finishes.
