{"product_id":"amber-jade-effect-pierced-disc-and-brass-birds-resin-sculpture-40cm","title":"Amber Jade Effect Pierced Disc \u0026 Brass Birds Resin Sculpture - 40cm","description":"\u003ch3\u003eDescription\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA pierced disc with the circle cut out of its middle, in a honey jade-effect material with red branching drawn across the bottom half. A brass bird stands in the opening and a second on the brushed brass beneath, both long-legged and turned inward. The brushed brass beneath is part of the piece, and there is no other stand.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eThe Birds Are What Set the Scale\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eTwo birds on a ring is a scale decision before it is a decorative one. The disc itself says nothing about how big anything is: a pierced circle could be a coin or a gateway, and until something recognisable stands against it the eye has no way to choose. Put a wading bird in the opening and the ring becomes a sky and the red branching becomes a reed bed, all at once and without a word. Which is why the birds are drawn small against the opening rather than filling it. A bird at half the height of that circle would make the disc a hoop and the piece an ornament of a bird; at this size it makes the disc a distance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt asks to be seen at eye level and square on, since the birds are cut-outs and vanish edge on. At 40cm a console, a shelf at standing height or a hall table all work, with a plain ground behind so the opening reads as a shape and not as a hole onto wallpaper. The jade effect wants a light set behind the ring or well to one side; straight frontal light flattens it to a flat honey circle and the branching stops separating from the body.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eThe Ring, the Birds, and Delivery\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eAllow 3–4 weeks for a standard piece and 5–6 weeks for a bespoke commission. The birds are set to other positions before packing or supplied as one rather than two, the branching is drawn heavier or left off, and the ring is cast at other diameters. A colourless body is offered and turns the piece graphic rather than mineral, which suits a modern room and loses the reference. The brass is also made in a darker patina. It is sent in one box with the birds packed separately and the ring bedded on its face, and one person lifts it. Our main studios are in the UK (Birmingham) and Dubai, with additional global workshops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA disc borrowed from jade is \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/classic-sculptures\"\u003eclassic sculpture\u003c\/a\u003e; the two birds are \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/metal-sculptures\"\u003emetal sculpture\u003c\/a\u003e; and a piece with this much detail is \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/indoor-sculptures\"\u003eindoor sculpture\u003c\/a\u003e work.\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\u003e40cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e33.2cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDepth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e8.7cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eJade Effect Cast Resin with Brass\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Giant Sculptures","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54069526724955,"sku":"X212","price":2362.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0869\/3383\/2027\/files\/X212.jpg?v=1790957223","url":"https:\/\/giant-sculptures.com\/products\/amber-jade-effect-pierced-disc-and-brass-birds-resin-sculpture-40cm","provider":"Giant Sculptures","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
