At the top, there is a design element resembling a bird in flight, with rounded, polished copper or brass-like domes accentuating the key's elaborate motif. The shank is textured with a twisted design, and it ends in a complex, looped bit typically associated with historical keys. The background is plain. The overall presentation suggests a design drawing or an artistic study of a luxurious or ceremonial object. This is in style of Art Nouveau.
