ironworking

/ˈaɪɚnwɜkɪŋ/ noun

The making of useful or decorative items from iron.

Word Origin Ironworking is the craft of working iron. Iron from Old English 'īren', from Proto-Germanic *īsarnan, possibly from Celtic. Work from Old English 'weorc' (deed, labor). The same 'work' root gives us worker, workable, network, framework, artwork. So ironworking is literally 'iron-labor'.
