There are four types of hammering available on our iron balusters. Each type is different and unique. Two of them are machine hammered and two of them are hand hammered. They all look beautiful. Read about the different types of hammering below and what type of home they can be used with.
Tuscan Square Hammered
Our line of Tuscan Square Hammered iron balusters feature a 9/16″ square bar that is hand hammered on all 4 sides and each baluster is truly unique. No two balusters will have the same hammering. Due to the variance in the hand hammering, this baluster could occasionally be as wide as 5/8″ or as small as 1/2″. For this reason, there are different shoes required for Tuscan parts to account for this variance. This style goes well in rustic style homes.
Tuscan Round Hammered
Tuscan Round Hammered iron balusters feature a 9/16″ round bar that is hammered with long and thin hammerings. Think of it like being hammered into a round shape. Similar to the Tuscan Square, each baluster is unique and will not look exactly the same as the others. Similar to the Tuscan Square, these use different shoes to account for the variance in the hammering. This style also goes well in rustic style homes.
