Agree with Mona, I also thought of eccrine angiomatous hamartoma.

Intimate association of capillaries, eccrine glands and adipose tissue. Will go with eccrine angiomatous hamartoma.
Although the proliferating capillaries are rather 'tufted', they do not show the characteristic peripheral lymphatic channel, seen with tufted angioma.

I called this tufted angioma. However, I can see based on the images why some may want to call it eccrine angiomatous hamartoma. I guess when I saw the H&E slide, I was more struck by the tufts of capillaries, a few of which I photographed. There were areas of tufted capillaries without any accompanying eccrine proliferation on the slide.
