Custom Wrought Iron Chair Cushions, Made to Your Measurements

Factory-direct, cut to your measurements — curved backs, scroll arms, vintage frames.

Wrought iron furniture is the classic non-standard replacement job: the frames were bent, welded and scrolled by hand, so the seats are trapezoids, the backs are curves, and two chairs from the same set can differ by half an inch. Universal pads are cut for none of it — they gap at the curves, overhang the scrolls, and their ties land on solid metal instead of through an opening.

We cut wrought iron chair cushions to your frame’s numbers — curved backs recorded as radii, trapezoid seats as two widths, ties placed where your frame actually has openings to thread. Vintage and antique metal patio furniture, bistro sets, scroll-arm chairs: same job, numbers in, cushions out.

Shape preselected: Rectangle

Enter seat width and depth (front and back widths if the seat tapers), thickness, and back height — curved pieces get the radius noted too — then pick your fabric tier.

Pricing — estimated starting at

Fabric tier	Estimated price*
Cotton Linen	$72
Tech Fabric	$74
Premium Velvet	$77

*One iron bistro seat (17.5 × 17.5 × 3 in.): $39 make-base + 2.1 sq ft × rate ($15.32/$16.43/$17.56 per sq ft, 3" 50D foam + fabric). Curved-back pieces and settees price on their own area at the same formula.

For comparison: U.S. custom-configurator specialists’ 2026 listings run made-to-order cushions well above formula price once configured — and most only reveal that number after a quote request. We publish the formula above so you can check the math before you order.

Popular Wrought Iron Chair Sizes We Cut

Typical wrought iron cushion sizes by frame type (typical, always measure):

Piece	Typical size	Notes
Iron bistro chair	17–19 W × 17–19 D	Round or radiused seats are common — note the radius
Scroll-arm patio chair	18–21 W × 18–20 D	Scrolls set the tie points; ties thread the openings
Curved-back iron chair	Back bows 2–6" over its chord	Record the bow, not just corner-to-corner width
Iron settee / loveseat	36–48 W, two seats + shared back	Measured as the pieces it actually is
Vintage & antique frames	No two alike	Hand-bent frames vary piece to piece — measure every chair

Yours differs? That’s the point — we cut to your numbers.

How to Measure a Wrought Iron Chair Cushion

Trapezoid seats get two widths — front and back, to the nearest quarter inch; wrought iron decks taper wider at the front more often than any other frame type.
Curved backs get the bow recorded: width corner to corner, then how far the curve rises over that chord — the full radius method is in our radius guide.
Map the frame openings before ordering ties — iron frames fasten through the scroll and bar openings, and a tie sewn where there is no opening fastens to nothing.
Measure every chair in a vintage set — hand-bent frames vary piece to piece even within one set; the single-chair sample order is the remake trigger.

Fabric on Metal Frames

Metal changes two fabric decisions: the frame heats in full sun, so a lighter cover color keeps the seat cooler; and the frame rusts where water sits, so foam-core fills that shed and dry beat fiber pads that hold moisture against the metal. Tech fabric (waterproof, wipe-clean) is the open-deck default; cotton linen suits covered porches; solution-dyed acrylic is the full-sun color-life upgrade — the tier comparison is in the fabric guide.

Vintage Metal Patio Frames, and the Word Family

Vintage metal patio furniture is this category’s heart: revival-era sets from the last century, scroll-backed gliders, and flea-market finds whose cushions died decades ago. The frames are often better built than anything sold today — which is exactly why the replacement path is measuring, not shopping.
Wrought vs cast iron is worth one sentence: wrought iron was bent and welded by hand (curves, scrolls, slight piece-to-piece variance), cast iron was poured into molds (heavier, crisper patterns, more brittle). Both take the same made-to-measure cushions — the measuring care goes up with the hand-bent variance.
Bistro and café sets are the small-format end: round or radiused seats at 17–19 inches, often in pairs on a balcony. Radiused corners over an inch get the radius on the order — a sharp-cornered cushion overhangs on a rounded deck.

Frequently asked questions

Can I order standard wrought iron cushion sizes?

Standard sizes too — in 3 clicks: bistro seats cluster at 17–19 inch squares at 3 thick — stock squares like 17 × 17 and 18 × 18 cover many frames. Type the numbers into the customizer for the same instant factory-direct quote; curved backs and tapered decks are the parts that need measuring.

How do I measure a curved wrought iron back?

Width corner to corner, then how far the curve rises over that chord — a rectangle pad on a bowed back gaps at the shoulders. Serious curves go in as a sketch or paper template with the radius labeled, the same method as radius corners.

Do you make cushions for vintage metal patio furniture?

Yes — that is the core of this category: revival-era sets, scroll-back gliders, hand-bent frames nobody stocks parts for. Measure every chair (hand-bent frames vary piece to piece), record tapers and curves, and we cut to the numbers.

How do cushions fasten to wrought iron frames?

Through the openings: ties threaded through scroll and bar gaps, placed at your measured openings — not around bars, where motion and weather work them loose. On frames without openings, an anti-slip underside holds the seat pad in place.

What fabric is best for wrought iron patio cushions?

A weatherproof woven over a foam core — tech fabric wipes clean and the foam sheds water instead of holding it against the metal. Lighter cover colors keep the seat cooler on sun-hot frames; the honest tier comparison is in the fabric guide.
