Lovely Handmade Wheel of Alternating Woods with Unknown Purpose folk art horse pull toy he makes quite a striking

he makes quite a striking silhouette when hung on the wall

Lovely Handmade Wheel of Alternating Woods with Unknown Purpose folk art horse pull toy he makes quite a strikingI don't know why this was made or what for, but I find it beautiful, reminding me of early mensuration forms (geometric solids), specifically the round form made up of equally proportioned slice like segments, and even better for the alternating woods that make it so graphically striking. I'd just hang it from a nail on the wall and call it a day. 9" in diameter x 9 16" thick. As evident, these is a thin separation between the segments in two places.
