Villa Terrace Decorative Arts Museum, nestled in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, captivates visitors with its opulent Italian Renaissance villa and unparalleled collection of Cyril Colnik's wrought iron artistry.

This L-shaped iron grille is thought to be a sample piece created by Colnik while he was planning and designing the ironwork for the Paula and Erwin Uihlein house. Each of the eight curving segments is in a slightly different pattern, most likely to give the patrons more choices. According to the Villa Terrace records, the pattern for this grille was modeled on the iron gates of St. Swithun’s shrine in Winchester Cathedral, England. Cyril drew inspiration from many locations and time periods for his own work.Photography by Kevin Miyazaki.
