Furniture Hardware

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Black and white photo of a display board titled "Furniture Hardware" by an unknown artist. The display board is made of light-colored wood with a grain pattern. It is filled with numerous metal hardware pieces, mostly drawer pulls and doorknobs, arranged in rows. The hardware is made of metal and has various shapes, including fleur-de-lis, scrollwork, and geometric patterns. Some pieces have a ornate design, while others are simpler. The hardware pieces are all attached to the board, with some having screws visible. A small plaque is located at the bottom right corner of the board. The background of the image is white, suggesting that it may be a product photo or catalog image.
