Hi Woody
Nicely finished with an oriental feel to it. It looks as if you've got identical forms in the lid and base and even wall thicknesses.well done.
Is the finial wood or metal?

Hi Woody, there looks to have been a recent trend on this form with boxes. like it as being different.

Well done, always so good to see your work.
