Thanks all. i really didn't have any intention of keeping this when i started. As i said it was done just to see if i could figure this dye stuff out. Still not real sure of the form. might do a bigger piece and try some other colors.
Jonathan i just turn the basic shape. With a coping saw, cut the cove on the top of the finial then hollow and sand. make the lidded finial separately.
