The posterior of each wheelbarrow design incorporates two horizontal pales with subtly scrolling terminals replicating the vessels handles, in addition to two vertical supports allowing the piece to stand in situ. The silver wheel of each piece bears lobed spokes and a plain applied border to the rim; this functional wheel conjoins to the dish with a plain frame to the sides.
