Intense dislike for wrought iron vase (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

aversion

'intense dislike' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'wrought iron vase' is the wordplay.
'wrought' indicates anagramming the letters (wrought means beaten or shaped into form).
'iron'+'vase'='ironvase'
'ironvase' anagrammed gives 'AVERSION'.

'for' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for aversion that I've seen before include "horror" , "an object of dislike" , "serious dislike" , "Strong dislike for, makes you look away" , "A strong dislike or repugnance" .)
