{"product_id":"amber-and-olive-hooked-crescent-resin-sculpture-36cm","title":"Amber \u0026 Olive Hooked Crescent Resin Sculpture - 36cm","description":"\u003ch3\u003eDescription\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA hooked crescent lifted clear on a small white marble block. One end rises and hooks over at the top, its tip reaching out across a wide opening above the belly, while the other end sweeps out into a broad, open scoop. Olive runs through the hook, which ends in an amber tip; amber-honey fills the belly and the scoop; and a drift of crinkled gold-toned flakes shows low in the hook. The white marble block under it is supplied, and it is narrower than the crescent at both ends.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eAn Olive Hook Over a Wide Amber Opening\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA crescent hooked over at one end is a form built around its opening, and here the opening is left wide: the hook curls over and stops well clear of the belly, so the space beneath it belongs to the piece instead of reading as a gap waiting to close. The colour follows the same line, olive where the hook turns over and amber-honey down through the belly into the scoop, with the tip of the hook caught in a bright amber edge. A drift of crinkled gold-toned flakes lies low in the hook, the one textured passage in an otherwise glassy body. It is polished all over, so the hook returns a highlight that moves as you cross the room.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is a desk piece, and the open side of the hook is the side to turn outward. A plain wall behind keeps the hook readable; anything patterned fills the opening with detail. Light from one side runs the length of the belly and gathers at the point of the hook. From across the room it reads as one hooked line, and the colour change only arrives when you are close.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eThe Hook, the Stone and Getting It Home\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA standard piece takes 3–4 weeks to make, and a bespoke commission 5–6. The hook is drawn tighter or opened out, the olive is taken out of the point, the gold-toned flakes are left out, and the block is cut in black marble. A frosted finish can be given in place of the polish, which softens the olive and the amber into one even glow. Crescent and block are proportioned together, so a change to the hook is matched by the block chosen beneath it. They travel in one crate with the block wrapped apart, and the crescent comes out cradled under its belly, the hook and the rim of the scoop left free. Our main studios are in the UK (Birmingham) and Dubai, with additional global workshops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAn olive hook curling over an amber scoop, with gold-toned flakes low in it, is found among our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/organic-sculptures\"\u003eorganic sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e, our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/resin-sculptures\"\u003eresin sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e and our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/indoor-sculptures\"\u003eindoor sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e25cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e36cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDepth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e25cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBase\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e18 x 15 x 4cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCast Amber Resin with Gold-Toned Flakes on White Marble\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Giant Sculptures","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54099916915035,"sku":"H035","price":2242.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0869\/3383\/2027\/files\/H035.jpg?v=1792070566","url":"https:\/\/giant-sculptures.com\/products\/amber-and-olive-hooked-crescent-resin-sculpture-36cm","provider":"Giant Sculptures","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
