Coming Full Circle

This one was a bit tricky to assemble. 3 hands and a bunch of clamps and homemade fixtures were needed to hold the whole thing together while the glue set up.
The woods are figured maple, jarrah, and Indian rosewood. It's 13"Hx12"Wx7"D.
The finial on the holllow form vessel lifts off to reveal a removable reliquary container. The lower finial reaches into the cone shaped recepticle but doesn't touch it.
Comments welcome.
