Furniture Hardware

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image from Furniture Hardware by Henry Kellam Hancock shows a black-and-white photograph of seven oval-shaped keyhole covers arranged in three rows. The top row has one keyhole cover centered; the second row has three, one on either side and one centered; the bottom row has two, one on either side. The covers are ornate with various patterns including flowers, leaves, and scrollwork. The background of the photograph is light gray with a thin white border around the keyhole covers. The photograph itself has a thick black border with white handwritten text at the bottom that reads "INST. 12-22.8.8 5548P1" and white handwritten text at the top that reads "TOP".
