Chocolate Sundae w/ Cherry

Here's an American Holly lidded bowl. The lid is made from Blue Mahoe and features a moderately detailed Aluminum finial. The cherry(bead) is Bloodwood. At best guess, dimensions are 6" wide and 10" tall. I forgot to measure it before shipping.

i love the incorporation of the two elements. is the finial (below the ball) two pieces, or did it start as one large round stock?

Thanks guys. The base of the finial is from 1.5" round stock. The top is frm 5/8" stock. These finials take almost 2 hours to turn. But I'm getting faster...

These are looking great Leo. You really need to apply like we were talking.
I'd love to see a close up shot of your next finial, they are worth a detailed view!
