{"product_id":"aqua-frosted-rising-sweep-resin-sculpture-40cm","title":"Aqua Frosted Rising Sweep Resin Sculpture - 40cm","description":"\u003ch3\u003eDescription\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA single sweep that rises at both ends, with one end drawn further round than the other: one rolls over into a scrolled lip, while the opposite end lifts into a broad, open tip. A second fold runs along the inside of the curve. One aqua holds the whole sweep, deepest along the rims and at the turns, and pales almost to white where the curve comes down to its block. The white block comes with it and is cut square to the width of the sweep.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eA Turn Made Visible Without a Highlight\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA frosted surface on a twisting form is a way of making the turn visible without using a highlight to do it. Because the two ends are unequal the piece has a front, which a symmetrical sweep would not, and the frost is what makes that readable from any angle rather than only in profile. Cast resin takes a frost evenly across a curve; a ground glass surface would break up where the sweep tightens. The whole surface is frosted, which turns the aqua from a colour you see through into one you see on.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA console table takes this one, set where you pass it rather than where you sit. It wants something quiet behind, because the frost takes its tone from whatever is there. Frosted, it holds light rather than passing it, so a lamp near it will make the aqua glow. At a distance it is a single aqua curve; the frost and the two unequal ends resolve later.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFinish, Stone and Getting It In\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn the workshop a standard piece takes 3–4 weeks and a bespoke commission 5–6. On request the sweep is left clear instead of frosted, the aqua deepened or cooled towards blue, and the block made in dark marble. The block is cut to whatever width the sweep ends at, so the two are settled together. The inner fold can be drawn closer to the rim or let out across the curve, which changes how the sweep reads from the front. Sweep and block travel in one crate, each padded on its own. Our main studios are in the UK (Birmingham) and Dubai, with additional global workshops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA frosted aqua sweep rising unequally at its two ends sits with 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\u003e23cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e40cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDepth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e24cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBase\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e40 x 40 x 6cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFrosted Cast Aqua Resin on Natural Marble\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Giant Sculptures","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54099915571547,"sku":"H105","price":2564.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0869\/3383\/2027\/files\/H105.jpg?v=1791934434","url":"https:\/\/giant-sculptures.com\/products\/aqua-frosted-rising-sweep-resin-sculpture-40cm","provider":"Giant Sculptures","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
