That’s all really great looking.  I especially like the rail in the first two pics. Haven’t seen anything similar to that before.  What would a railing like that cost to have made and installed?

I loved doing that one too, the design was pretty damn neat.
I cant exactly speak to what the cost would be as I was just working as a fabricator for a custom ornamental company, but if I had to guess the customer was probably charged north of 30,000. (And thats just the stair railings, we did other stuff on the house too)
It was alot of man hours and know how to do spirals like that, plus the top handrail was a wood cap done by a subcontractor and I had to match the warpiness of the wood so it didnt look off lol.

Each one of those hoops on pitch had to be their own size to keep them plumb so each one was made custom to their position.
Then they also have holes drilled in the side and some orbs got thrown in between them.

Fantastic work!  

I’ve done a couple balcony railings that were completely straight and I was worried about the fit up once they were completed.  Getting those curves right is a work of art.
