The key has a large sprung round handle profusely decorated with carving. The rest of the key has a round body also decorated with carving and two suspension loops. It has a gold sleeve on a metal winding pipe and is a size 1-2. The key measures 46mm x 15mm and is in 90% mint condition – there are little marks around the main body and on the gold pipe
