Rajasthan Wrought Iron Craft refers to the traditional handmade ironwork practiced by skilled artisans in various regions of Rajasthan, India. This centuries-old craft involves manually shaping heated iron using simple tools and techniques passed down through generations. It is characterized by intricate designs, durability, and aesthetic appeal, blending functionality with artistic expression.

Historically, the craft dates back to the 17th century, flourishing under the patronage of Rajput rulers and Mughal architecture, where iron was widely used for ornamental gates, grills, furniture, and household articles. The blacksmiths, locally known as "Lohars", played a vital role in both domestic life and architectural embellishment.
