Description

A wagon wheel hub, consisting of two funnel-shaped metal pieces connected to each other by thin metal bars. One end of the metal portion has decorative geometric detailing. The inside of the metal portion is filled with wood, as it appears as if there used to be wood sticking out of the center area, but that has since broken off.
