Furniture Hardware

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image titled "Furniture Hardware" by an unknown artist shows a large rectangular wooden board covered with various metal hardware pieces. The board is light-colored wood with a grainy texture, with the metal pieces arranged in rows. The metal pieces are all different shapes and sizes, with some being small and others larger. Most are made of a dark metal, possibly iron or bronze, and have a decorative design. The designs include crown-like shapes, floral patterns, and geometric shapes. Some of the pieces have a knob or handle, while others are just decorative. The board fills most of the image, with a white border around it. A small black plaque is in the bottom-right corner of the board. The overall appearance is one of a collection or display of various hardware pieces.
