The form fans open from a narrow foot into a broad shell whose upper rim breaks into short spikes, and it leans and sweeps to one side rather than standing square, with four openings through the bottom half.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eA Shell Fanned Open and Swept to One Side\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe lean is deliberate and it is what stops the fan reading as a symmetrical scallop. The whole form tips away from the vertical, so the rim on one side is much higher than the other and the openings sit off the centre line, which gives the piece a strong reading from the front and almost nothing from the back. The spikes on the rim are all different lengths and they are the thinnest material on the sculpture. The surface is worked into ridges that radiate from the foot up to the rim, following the fan.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt 63cm overall and broad for its height, it suits a sideboard, a wide console or a low bookcase top better than a shelf. It should be positioned with the sweep facing into the room and the low side towards the wall. Being wide and pierced it reads well against a window, and it carries from across a room rather than only at close range. Indoor use only.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFour Colourways, Including the Multicolour\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eDelivery follows a 3–4 week build as standard, or a 5–6 week build if bespoke. This form is made in four finishes and they are genuinely different objects. A saturated aqua reads as one solid colour with light coming through the openings. A colourless version with gold flecks reads as glass, and the flecks pick up warm light. The multicoloured version carries blue, green, yellow and amber across the same piece, with the colours meeting in soft bands rather than at lines, and it is the one to choose where the sculpture has to be the only strong thing in a room. A smoke black version flecked with gold turns the fan into a dark silhouette, and a single colour can be cast in any tint from the studio range. A pale stone base is made, which suits a piece this wide on a dark sideboard. On handling: the rim spikes are numerous and fine, and they are the first thing to meet anything, so the piece travels bedded in foam and the base is boxed apart from it, and it is lifted by the solid body beneath the rim and never by the rim itself. Our main studios are in the UK (Birmingham) and Dubai, with additional global workshops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA spiked fan swept to one side belongs with our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/abstract-sculptures\"\u003eabstract sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e; ridges radiating from a narrow foot to the rim join it to our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/organic-sculptures\"\u003eorganic sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e, and saturated aqua through a pierced casting suits our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/resin-sculptures\"\u003eresin 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\u003e57cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e47cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDepth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e21cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBase\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e25 x 20 x 6cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCast Resin with Black Marble Base\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Giant Sculptures","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53956670816603,"sku":"T023","price":2294.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0869\/3383\/2027\/files\/T023.jpg?v=1790858007","url":"https:\/\/giant-sculptures.com\/products\/aqua-spiked-fanned-shell-resin-sculpture-63cm","provider":"Giant Sculptures","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
