I took art-metal work classes a million years ago and during my wrought-iron/black-smithing classes we were told not to wear gloves whilst working with the iron because you'd get a better feel for the heat of the iron when working.
When working wrought-iron with leather gloves the leather can super-heat really you only feel it once it's too late. Bare-handed you can tell pretty quickly if the metal is too hot to touch.
This was only for working wrought-iron, though. Casting is totally different...
