Four shells sit one within the next, each rising a little clear of the one before, and a domed disc stands upright at the back of the arrangement. The aqua is deepest at the outer wall and lightens inward, and fine bubbles are held through the thickness. It arrives as the bowl alone, sitting on the curve of its outermost shell.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFour Walls, One Interior\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eNesting four walls inside one another is a question of how much each is allowed to hide. Set them too close and the piece reads as one thick wall with grooves in it; too far apart and it becomes four separate objects sharing a foot. The spacing here widens as it goes outward, so the innermost pair are nearly touching and the outermost stand well clear, which is what gives the arrangement a direction from the middle out. The bubbles are the other decision. They are held through the walls rather than the floor, so looking in through four of them at once gives the interior a depth that clear material alone would not.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA broad console or a sideboard takes it, set square to the room, because this is a piece met from the front: the clear outer wall shows all four shells and the dome behind them at once. Overhead light passes through all four walls and reaches the floor, which is exactly what the bubbles are there for. A pale surface underneath lifts the whole thing; a dark one turns the interior into a hole. Behind the shells the dome stands as a pale disc, and a plain wall at its back keeps that circle clear of anything else.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eShell Counts, Tints and Delivery\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eSet aside 3–4 weeks for a standard piece and 5–6 weeks for a bespoke commission. The shell count is set to three or five, a second dome is added at the front, and the aqua is cleared toward the rims. Diameter is settled at the order, and the shells are nested to the size instead of kept at four. Where a quieter object is wanted the shell count is brought to three and the spacing opened out, which makes a much more open bowl at the same diameter. The bubble density is set finer or coarser to taste. It ships in one crate packed under the outermost shell alone, and two people should lift it onto a surface. Our main studios are in the UK (Birmingham) and Dubai, with additional global workshops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFour aqua shells nested one inside the next, with a pale dome rising behind them, take this bowl to our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/functional-sculpture-art-furniture\"\u003eart furniture\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\u003e44cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e69cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDepth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e13cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCast Aqua Resin\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Giant Sculptures","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54077560684891,"sku":"H010","price":3030.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0869\/3383\/2027\/files\/H010.jpg?v=1791930891","url":"https:\/\/giant-sculptures.com\/products\/aqua-four-nested-shell-bowl-resin-sculpture-69cm","provider":"Giant Sculptures","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
