Look at this, a 1920's vintage German putz twig wheelbarrow. A neat compliment to an Easter decorating scheme or other putz scene. The wheelbarrow is made of wood bark sides alternating with twigs.  Each of the bark pieces are shaped to a point.  All points are good except one is missing the tip of the point.  Looking at it, I believe it has been missing for many years, perhaps even at the time of making, as it has a darken patina of age. The wheel and handle of the wheelbarrow are made of twigs.  The cart is stuffed with tiny chips and slivers of wood or dried moss.  A cluster of artificial   fruit further embellishes the piece.

This cute wheelbarrow measures 9-1/2" long from the wheel to end of handles.  3" wide at the widest point.  It stands 4" high, including the fruit.  Made in Germany paper label on the bottom.

Condition:  Nice except the missing point on one of the bark pieces as I mentioned prior.

What a fun Easter display this would make.  Very unique.
