Question about turning small details

What tools do you use to turn the rolled lip and beaded base details?
These are 1/4" ID or so.
Pointed gouge. Means ears waaaay back, drop at the sides almost vertical.
Enter with the sharp nose, then drop the handle and roll to shear scrape.
Narrower nose and more consistent angle of the bevel makes it less grabby
than a fingernail pattern.
Thanks, George,
I used your info, along with other respondents', to obtain a
manageable grind. See addendum post for details if you're interested.
