The hand is small and slender, with a pretty frilly cuff around the top wrist and holding a solid ball in it's grip. Attached to the back is a screw thread and bolt. The knocking stud is round and is complete with the bolt so it can be fitted into place.
The door pull is small and compact decorated with curled leaves around the outside. Both the door knocker and door pull are covered in layers of original paint, the last layer is an attractive dark green colour with other layers visible where is has been knocked away over time.

The door pull measures 14 cm (5 1/2") wide (side to side at the widest point) 7 cm (2 3/4") from front to back (not including the screw fixings).
