{"product_id":"amber-shell-cast-resin-armchair-81cm","title":"Amber Shell Cast Resin Armchair - 81cm","description":"\u003ch3\u003eDescription\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis armchair is cast in a translucent amber resin. Back, seat and both arms are one continuous cast shell. The back rises straight and then rolls forward at the top edge, the arms run out from it as flat wings that turn down at the front, and the seat dishes gently between them. Four legs run from the corners, square at the top and rounded by the time they reach the floor. The resin is translucent throughout, so the shell is darker where two surfaces overlap at the arm joins and lighter across the open span of the back.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eOne Shell From Back to Arms\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe shell is the whole argument of the chair. Back, arms and seat read as one continuous surface with no join anywhere on it, and the eye can follow the back up, forward along an arm and down to the seat without meeting an edge. The tone follows the geometry: the flat span of the back is the palest part of the chair, the arm junctions are the darkest, and the gradient between them is smooth. Colour sits in the material rather than on it, so an edge shows the same tint as a face and there is nothing to wear off. The legs leave the seat square in section and arrive at the floor round, the change happening along their length rather than at a shoulder, which is why they look drawn rather than attached.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt 81cm this is a full armchair rather than an occasional seat, and it needs the room an armchair needs. The shell is translucent, so what stands behind it will be visible through the back; a plain wall serves it better than a patterned one. The amber is quiet enough to sit at a table, and the arms are low enough to run under a standard dining table if it is being used that way. The seat is hard, which suits a dining or desk position better than a long evening. Indoors only.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eThe Tint, the Seat Height and a Matched Set\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eOrdinarily a standard piece needs 3–4 weeks and a bespoke commission 5–6. The amber can be deepened or taken paler, or the shell cast in a tint you specify, and the leg length is adjusted so the seat sits at a height you name. The legs can also be cast clear while the shell keeps its colour. Overall width is settled at order. Where two or more are wanted, the tint is held the same across the group. It travels with the two arm tips packed clear, and two people can place it. Our main studios are in the UK (Birmingham) and Dubai, with additional global workshops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOne amber shell from back to arms makes this chair part of our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/functional-sculpture-art-furniture\"\u003eart furniture\u003c\/a\u003e; work in this idiom is collected in our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/contemporary-modern-sculptures\"\u003econtemporary and modern sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e, and seating made for indoor rooms in our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/indoor-sculptures\"\u003eindoor sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e81cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e60cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDepth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e53cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTinted Cast Resin\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Giant Sculptures","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53971208929627,"sku":"J307","price":4048.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0869\/3383\/2027\/files\/J307.jpg?v=1791377188","url":"https:\/\/giant-sculptures.com\/products\/amber-shell-cast-resin-armchair-81cm","provider":"Giant Sculptures","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
