It is authentic and dates from the 19th century or earlier, already or soon to be two centuries old (except for the wooden part, which is recent).
It will stylishly equip the door of your ancient home or your vacation house, if you do not wish to disfigure it with an electric doorbell. It can be installed this way or without the wooden part, as there is a metal section inside the wooden part.
It depicts a ringed hand holding a sphere. It is in very good condition, bending and straightening without play or resistance. It only shows signs of its age. There are still traces of old red paint on the underside of the hand.
Its weight is 294 grams. It measures about 12 cm, or about 8.5 cm not including the wooden part and therefore the metal part inside it. The wooden part has a section of 3 x 2.5 cm and a length of about 3.7 cm. It is a reasonably sized knocker that can adapt to a less massive door.
