Two summits rise at the back and the mass steps down toward the front, and the whole piece sits on a long black marble base that runs the length of the mountain.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eAqua Resin Worked to a Crust of Ice\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe surface is what makes this piece. Instead of being polished smooth, the resin is worked while it sets into a crust of ridges and rime, so that it reads as ice formed over rock rather than as glass. The aqua lies deeper in the hollows of that crust and thinner over its edges, and where light strikes the ridges they flash almost white. Beneath it the black marble is cut plain and flat, the one quiet surface in the piece, and it holds the mountain clear of whatever it stands on so the lower edge of the ice reads.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt this size it suits a long sideboard or a wide console, or a reception counter where it is seen from across the room. It needs space on all sides for the crust to be appreciated, and it is at its best lit from above or from one side, when every ridge of the ice catches light. Against a dark wall the aqua glows; against a pale one it reads cooler.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eThe Ice, the Marble, and Delivery\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eTime separates the two: a bespoke commission takes 5–6 weeks, a standard piece 3–4. The crust can be worked finer or coarser, and the aqua taken deeper toward blue, paled almost to clear or changed for another tint, while the marble beneath can be cut in a paler stone. The marble can be cut longer or deeper to suit the surface it stands on. It travels crated, the mountain bedded in foam and the marble packed on its own, and two people should lift each part, the marble first. Our main studios are in the UK (Birmingham) and Dubai, with additional global workshops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRock rimed over with a crust of ice belongs with our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/organic-sculptures\"\u003eorganic sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e; aqua deepening in its hollows suits our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/resin-sculptures\"\u003eresin sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e, and a mountain set on black marble joins our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/contemporary-modern-sculptures\"\u003econtemporary and modern sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e \u003ctr\u003e \u003ctd\u003eHeight\u003c\/td\u003e \u003ctd\u003e72cm\u003c\/td\u003e \u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e \u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e \u003ctd\u003e115cm\u003c\/td\u003e \u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e \u003ctd\u003eDepth\u003c\/td\u003e \u003ctd\u003e45cm\u003c\/td\u003e \u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e \u003ctd\u003eBase\u003c\/td\u003e \u003ctd\u003e120 x 50 x 8cm\u003c\/td\u003e \u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e \u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e \u003ctd\u003eAqua Cast Resin with Black Marble Base\u003c\/td\u003e \u003c\/tr\u003e \u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Giant Sculptures","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54230280110427,"sku":"S181","price":7020.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0869\/3383\/2027\/files\/S181.jpg?v=1790873669","url":"https:\/\/giant-sculptures.com\/products\/aqua-ice-textured-mountain-on-black-marble-resin-sculpture-120cm","provider":"Giant Sculptures","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
