Marks of a slightly round-headed chisel can be seen in the hair of these figures. The carver appears to have been alternating between flat and rounded chisel during the finishing of these figures.
The noses of the two figures on the right of this image had their noses restored at some point prior to the late twentieth-century; the pin holes for attaching these noses can be seen here. Some of these noses were put back on after cleaning. It is noticeable that the broken edges of the noses had been squared off in order to make a cleaner restoration.
