I like it but would have removed the lip on the top of the bowl for a more appealing look

I'm leaning toward agreement with Larry. The lip looks like a mistake to me. Without it I think it would look great either with or without the finial. Not a bad looking piece like it is, just much better without that lip. 8-)

To me the top makes the piece, with out it, its ok, but like Larry and Rev, I believe it would look better with out the top ring. Other than that, this is a beautiful piece, well done!!! Thumbs Up!
