{"product_id":"amber-three-fin-dart-resin-and-steel-sculpture-63cm","title":"Amber Three-Fin Dart Resin \u0026 Steel Sculpture - 63cm","description":"\u003ch3\u003eDescription\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAn amber resin dart of three fins swept off a single central ridge, one standing tall and two carried out wide to either side. Amber runs through all three fins and deepens to a red-brown along the ridge where they meet and along their thin outer edges. The round steel plate is supplied, and the dart stands on it where its three fins meet.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eThree Fins Off One Ridge\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThree fins is an awkward number and that is the point: it gives the piece no symmetry to fall back on, so it has to be balanced by eye at every angle. The ridge is therefore not in the middle of anything. It is set where the three sweeps happen to balance, which is why the piece looks settled from the front and dynamic from the side. The tall fin rises almost straight from the plate, while the two side fins sweep out to points held well clear of it. Polished, each fin catches the light in bright points across its face, while the ridge, seen edge on, stays a dark line.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt 63cm with its plate it suits a desk or a narrow console, with the plate flat on the surface. A plain wall holds the three fins; anything vertical behind them competes with the ridge. A light above and slightly forward catches all three fins at once. The three fins read as a single swept shape until you can see the ridge that makes them three.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eAdding a Fin, and How It Arrives\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003ePlan for 3–4 weeks on a standard piece and 5–6 weeks on a bespoke commission. A fourth fin is added, the amber is deepened, and the plate is made brushed rather than polished. Add a fin and all of them are reset around the ridge, since the sweep is shared between them. A deeper amber turns the ridge almost black and leaves the tips of the fins glowing. Plate and dart travel together in one crate, and the dart is lifted by its central ridge, never by the fine tips of its fins. Our main studios are in the UK (Birmingham) and Dubai, with additional global workshops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAn amber dart of three swept fins standing on a round steel plate is part of our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/stainless-steel-sculptures\"\u003estainless steel sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e, our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/organic-sculptures\"\u003eorganic 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\u003e59.7cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e50cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDepth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e29cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBase\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e30 x 30 x 3cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCast Amber Resin on Stainless Steel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Giant Sculptures","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54099918553435,"sku":"H394","price":1970.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0869\/3383\/2027\/files\/H394.jpg?v=1791993929","url":"https:\/\/giant-sculptures.com\/products\/amber-three-fin-dart-resin-and-steel-sculpture-63cm","provider":"Giant Sculptures","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
