The head of the knocker is made from a molded sheet of brass in the form of the head of a foo lion with swirls of a mane, star-like swirls on the forehead, and two lines of teeth. The swirls remind me of Kangxi designs on foo lions. A heavy cast bronze pull / knocker I with a deep cast design of a lotus is inserted through his mouth. The brass has a dark aged brass patina. The back is a flat sheet of brass. Three holes extend through the knocker to attach it to a door.
