Pull the string on this red-bellied woodpecker carving and it raps loudly, just like the real bird. It screws to a door, door frame or on the side of your house and serves as a doorknocker. Or hang it inside your house outside of a bedroom or bathroom door! The nail in the beak hits against a nail in the base and will last for years. It's a perfect gift as it brings smiles to everyone who sees it. The doorknocker is hand-carved of basswood (a very carveable wood that does not split and takes paint well), hand-feathered to show detail and painted with acrylic paint. The eyes are glass, feet are metal and base is wood.The overall measurement of this piece is 10 inches, and the bird measures 8 1/2 inches from beak to tail.

Charming and wonderfully detailed
I'm obsessed with this doorknocker. It's so wonderfully detailed and charming - a great addition to our home and our kids love using it. It is rather large so if you have a storm door, it might not fit between being on your door and the storm door (check dimensions).

Handcrafted wood
I bought this for my husband for Christmas as he had an old friend that used to have one. It is beautifully made, both carved and painted. It came carefully packaged in bubble wrap for shipping and we received it with in a week of purchase date.

Beautiful door knocker!
I ordered one for a cabin we have in the mountains and when I received it I was so impressed with the detail and beauty I ordered another one for our home in the city.

Looks even better in person
This is beautiful! It looks even better in person than the picture. The wood carver even signed the back.
