Mike those were turned as attention getters and jury pieces. The finials are minute turnings shielded inside of sea shells. I am paranoid that true pointed finials will end up in someone eye .Beautiful work. I am trying to see what the shape is on top of the bowl? To me it is at an angle and I cannot tell. This is not criticism it is just me trying to understand the shape of the top.
