The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The artwork "Small Hanging" by an unknown artist depicts a hanging object with a long, thin metal piece extending from the top.

A middle section with a patterned band separates two sections of beads and tassels. The lower section consists of multiple strands of tassels, some shorter and some longer, and a band of beads near the top. The background is plain.
