The Met is overwhelming. There is so much to see and each room opens up into the next in the fashion of a labyrinth.
I totally geeked out looking at all the furniture. I was reading all about the in-lay, pietre dure, japanning and ogling the Duncan Fife exhibits.
They have a wonderful exhibition which is an actual re-creation of the living room from Northome by Frank Lloyd Wright. Eveyone that walked in just stood in absolute silence taking it all in. It was such a gorgeous space.
Off to one side in the archives, there was a workbench, tools and templates from the Tiffany studio. There was also piece after piece of Tiffany glass throughout the American Wing.
A couple of pieces from the modern furniture room.
