Furniture Hardware by Henry Kellam Hancock. The image shows a collection of brass and gold-toned metal hardware pieces arranged on a light blue surface. The pieces are laid out in four rows. The top row contains two curved pieces, one above the other with a slight gap between them. The second row from the top has a small octagonal piece on the left, a small handle in the center and a small hinge on the right. The third row from the top has two handles in the center. The bottom row has a long thin piece on the left, two small black pieces in the center and a bracket on the right. On the far right is a long thin piece with a screw on the bottom and a hook on top. The background is a solid light blue color.
