The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Tea Table by Robert Harrold: A rectangular table with dark wood, featuring a scalloped edge on the top. The table has four legs, with a curved metal support underneath. The legs are straight and have small feet. The metal support has an upside-down teardrop shape in the center, with two curved lines on either side that connect to the legs. Small decorative metal pieces are attached to the legs, just below the table top. The background is gray, with shadows cast by the table.
