I was able to orient the grain on this piece of maple to achieve what I wanted in this little piece. I also wanted to break the rules of form by combining some curves, hard angles and a foot!!! I think curves combined with some sharp angles give some visual interest a bit above what simple "round & brown" does at times.
Stands about 7.75 inches with the finial and is about 4.75 inches wide at the shoulder. Comments welcome!

Still have a little finishing to do........a little sanding and another coat of WOP.
