I got to spend some time in the shop today. This piece is made from Brazilian Cherry with a Bloodwood finial. I did the small captive ring in the center. It is 7-1/4” tall and 2” wide. It is also hollowed to the form and I made the bottom with quite a bit of mass to make up for the height. It is a suction fit lid.

(Sorry about the flash shadows, I am working on that)

That is very cool----of course the wife saw it and now she wants one.
I have never tried anything as small as your finial.
It will have to wait for a while but she ain't going to let me forget.
