doorknocker
Entry announcement device
A doorknocker is a hinged metal fixture on a door, meant to be struck against a plate to announce a visitor's presence.
Traditional designs include rings, lion heads, and decorative shapes.
The word sometimes appears as slang for a woman's breasts, especially large ones that swing or bounce.
