Tray

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image is a black-and-white photograph of a rectangular metal object with intricate designs. The object is rectangular and has a raised border around the edges with small scalloped details. The border contains rows of small bumps and geometric patterns on either side. Inside the border are two teardrop shapes pointing towards each other. Each teardrop has a circle at the end with a starburst pattern. The teardrops are outlined with lines and have horizontal lines across. The background of the image is a plain surface, possibly a table or countertop, with a light shadow cast by the object. The artist of the object is not visually identifiable, but the object is referred to as "Tray".
