Maybe she's like Harry:

She's not a fairie, so as long as the Iron is not under her skin, the mantle doesn't care.
Mass:
She's probably not actually fairie. If the theory is correct she is DEATH (now where has Binky gone)?
Amusingly that would mean Harry again used Soulfire to escape death.

This is a very interesting collection of theory's. The only thing I dispute is that Eb using the blackstaff to kill people could have just been him using his normal wizard magic.

Definitely.

If you're as bad-a** as Mother Winter, you have any kind of false teeth you want. ;)
You do present a good argument for MW not being Fae in some sense, or for the office of Winter's Eldest being like the office of Knight (in that Harry can handle iron, he only has problems if it penetrates his skin). But if MW is Death Herself, then by every definition I can think of she's not a "standard" Fae--indeed, if I were writing the books, Death would predate the Fae entirely.
The only fly in the ointment I see is thus: is this what Jim has in mind?
Time may tell....
