I love my garden and I have room to create a balcony space where I will
be putting seasonal plants in pots as well as baskets. My dilemma is
whether to choose a traditional wrought iron balcony or go for something
more modern like a glass balcony. My home is neither old nor new; built
circa 1950. I've seen some great look balconies in both iron a glass,
with steel or wood decking; wondered which would be most practical and
easy for maintenance.

Glass for a balcony on a 1950 house doesn't seem right somehow, but then
not knowing your house or how it may have changed in the past 70 years
then my advice is probably irrelevant.
