Iron (Harry Potter)

Iron (chemical symbol: Fe) is a chemical element, and a transition metal. Pure iron is soft, but the material is significantly hardened and strengthened by impurities from the smelting process, such as carbon. A magical form of iron could be produced by goblins, and was used to make the metal parts of the Firebolt.
==History==
The exit of Platform Nine and Three-Quarters, a wizarding train platform hidden from the eyes of Muggles at King's Cross Station, was made of a wrought-iron archway bearing the words Platform Nine and Three-Quarters.
There was an iron chandelier at Classroom 3C, on which Pixies hung Neville Longbottom during a Defence Against the Dark Arts class gone wrong with Professor Gilderoy Lockhart in 1992.
In the summer of 1993, the copies of The Monster Book of Monsters at Flourish and Blotts bookshop were kept in a large iron cage at the bookshop window.
