I just finished this Hollow Form, it is 11 inches tall. Hollowing out to the sides was tricky but with some luck, the piece survived the process. The wall thickness varies from 1/8" to something under 1/4" (some areas were hard to measure).

At first I didn't notice the mismatch finial and the base but after Stephen's comment I went back for a second look. I must say that I agree with him.

Other than that, it is a very good looking piece.

Very nice, Dennis. :thumb: That's one you can be proud of. I like the way you mirrored the pedestal elements with the finial elements.
