The wolf and twins were not cast, as Tarquitius says. Some pieces have the extrems rolled, but there are some exemplars without the lateral tubes.
If you see carefully the plate, you can see small dots, like punctim in the parts surrounding the wolf and the twins. Probably there are used to give more depth to the embossing, to make a "shadow" zone that helps to made more evident the figures of the scene.
