About this work

Ceremonial key with a double bit, one of which has rectangular teeth placed on it. The handle, resting on a square capital, is formed from two outward-turning C-volutes enclosing an hourglass. They support an architrave on which two inward-turning C-volutes are placed, crowned by a globe with a cross.
