Winston Churchill applied the phrase "Iron Curtain" to the situation in Europe after World War II. Queen Elisabeth of Belgium had previously used it after World War I. It was used by some else first. Not the queen of Belgium either.
"From Stettin in the Baltic to Trieste in the Adriatic, an iron curtain has descended across the Continent. Behind that line lie all the capitals of the ancient states of Central and Eastern Europe. Warsaw, Berlin, Prague, Vienna, Budapest, Belgrade, Bucharest and Sofia, all these famous cities and the populations around them lie in what I must call the Soviet sphere, and all are subject in one form or another, not only to Soviet influence but to a very high and, in many cases, increasing measure of control from Moscow."
Sir Winston Churchill gave that speech, the Iron Curtain was the Soviet border.

The "iron curtain " was not an actual thing, but an idea taken from a speech Winston Churchill gave. Just like the "Cold War" taken from the same speech they were concepts and ways to describe what was happening between the United States and Russia.
