The posterior of each wheelbarrow design incorporates two horizontal pales replicating the vessels handles, in addition to two vertical supports allowing the piece to stand in situ. These exceptional antique dishes feature further cast scrolling flourishes, emanating to a functional sterling silver wheel to the anterior portion. The cast silver wheel of each piece reflects a floral rosette, accented with a scalloped style border. The tapering well of each dish is plain and unembellished.
