Finial Sources

Hello All:

Looking for tips for a source of wooden finials. The closest I've come to
what I'm looking for by Googling is a solid oak acorn finial at Rockler.
However, the one they have available (3" diameter, 1" dowel pin) is too
large. I'm looking for something closer to 2" base diameter with a 1/2"
dowel. It's for the top of a mahogany coat tree. Sources appreciated.

These guys sell 2.5" ones. Seems that you could cut a small piece 2" in
diameter and glue it to the bottom. JG
