I could not stand looking at "gnarly" the way it was............did not like the lid! I took it to the shop and cut down the lid...........changed the appearance for the better in my opinion........even though the curves are not as flowing as one would like to see................
I liked the finial okay, so I kept it, even though I made it large on purpose to compete with the "gnarly-ness" of the form
First two pics are the new lid and slightly re-shaped base on the finial.......last pic is the original lid.
Comments welcome!
