Cherry & Walnut Off Axis Stave Segmented Finial Box.
I think this kind of outcome is called a "design opportunity." This was SUPPOSED to be a hollow form. I had gotten almost done and blew through the top.
I couldn't stand to chuck it, so I took what was left of the top and made it a foot with a walnut separator and top. Since I haven't done a finial before, this seemed like the perfect time to try.
Diameter: 3 1/8 inches
