This is an antique furniture caster with a wooden wheel and metal frame. The components show significant age and rust, giving it a rustic, aged patina.
Description
- Wheel: The wheel itself is made from hardwood, which was a common material for early casters. The wood has a dark, weathered appearance and shows wear from use.
- Frame and Stem: The yoke (frame) and tapered stem are made of cast iron or steel, which has heavily rusted over time. The stem is designed to be inserted into a pre-drilled hole in a furniture leg, often with small teeth at the base (a grip-neck socket) to secure it in place.
- Era: Casters of this design, combining wood and iron, were extensively used on furniture, such as dressers, pianos, and chairs, from the late 19th to early 20th century.
- 2.75" total height with 1" wheel diameter
