A ferro (plural ferri) or {{lang|it|ferro da facciata}} is an item of functional wrought-iron work on the façade of an Italian building. Ferri are a common feature of Medieval and Renaissance architecture in Lazio, Tuscany and Umbria. They are of three main types: {{lang|it|ferri da cavallo}} have a ring for tethering horses, and are set at about {{nobreak|1.5 metres}} from the ground; holders for standards and torches are placed higher on the façade and on the corners of the building; {{lang|it|arpioni}} have a cup-shaped hook or hooks to support cloth for shade or to be dried, and are set near balconies.{{r|bisol}}

In Florence, ferri da cavallo and arpioni were often made to resemble the head of a lion, the symbolic marzocco of the Republic of Florence.{{r|nove}} Later, cats, dragons, horses and fantastic animals were also represented.{{r|nove|john}}
