Help making this 3d ornament

Here's a version of your form split to make a profile and two rails and EEbyRails, Copy and EEbyVector to for edge-faces...

not quite. but my head hurts thinking about it

Aaaaaahhhhhh......

Thanks everybody for your suggestions. Tig, I tried your method and it works great. Is it possible to make rounded edges? Also, I tried to run the profile edge off the second rail, but it broke in two. I separated it and made it a curve and it worked great. Except for the round edges the results look perfect. Thanks again!
-
Did you look at this?
Although it isn't exactly the same, I think you could make the rounded edge in the same way I made the narrower parts of the finial.
-
I'm seeing a completely different shape than the rest?
-
That is funny because the shape I see in my mind is different than any of the examples.
-
To me it looks like leaf with two different larger bends and the edge curled over. I was only suggesting the finals I drew as an illustration of the way to get the main part and the curl on the edge. Maybe it's too hard for others to see the connection between what I did and the leaf. Should I remove it?
-
Thanks Dave. I hadn't seen that video. I have other ornaments to make and I think I can use those same principles.
-
Hmmm, with only one refernce image it's hard to understand the actual shape.
This is what I think...

i think it's a peace lily or similar
as to drawing it, i used BezierSpline to trace, move & rotate to place the splines, then curviloft's Loft with the method set to Bezier curves -- Respect tangency then used the tension controls on the segments..
