Wheel hub, four spokes, and four felloes all of some ring-porous hardwood, not necessarily the same species in all components. Combination of paint, grease, and weathering prevents further ID without destructive sampling. Iron axles, ferrules on hub ends, and "tire". Spokes and rim painted gray, wheel has some gray but also patches of black.
