Furniture Hardware

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Black and white photo of a wooden board covered with metal furniture hardware. The rectangular wooden board fills most of the image. It has a light-colored wood grain. There are 56 metal pieces attached to the board. The pieces are mostly handles and knobs but some are hinges and other types of hardware. The metal pieces are all different shapes and sizes. They are arranged in rows. The pieces are ornate with decorative details such as scrollwork and floral patterns. Some have a distressed or vintage look. A small black plaque is at the bottom right corner of the board with illegible text. The background is white.
