{"product_id":"black-matt-lugged-resin-jar-33cm","title":"Black Matt Lugged Resin Jar - 33cm","description":"\u003ch3\u003eDescription\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA matt black jar with a soft, even surface, the body swelling from a spreading foot to a shoulder and closing to a broad flared rim. Two small lugs stand out at the shoulders, no bigger than a thumb. The foot is turned out of the body itself and no separate stand is included.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eLugs That Are Not Meant to Be Used\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe two lugs will not take a finger and were never meant to. They come from a shape this jar is quoting, where the handles were structural and the vessel was lifted full, and the whole of the reference lives in them. Draw them at a useful size and the piece becomes a functional pot with two handles, which it is not; leave them off and the profile is just a swelling curve with a rim on it and the quotation goes. At a thumb's width they read as a memory of handles rather than as handles, and that is the entire decision. Everything else on the object is a curve with nothing on it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMatt black takes light and gives none back, so the jar reads as a shape cut out of whatever is behind it. That makes the ground the important choice: against a pale wall the silhouette is the whole effect and the flared rim draws a clean ellipse; against something dark it disappears. At 33cm it wants a low table, a hearth or the turn of a run rather than a high shelf, where the rim closes up and the profile is lost.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eThe Rim, the Surface, and Delivery\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eLead times run 5–6 weeks bespoke and 3–4 standard. The lugs are drawn broader or left off, the rim is flared wider or brought upright, and the black is lightened to a deep grey. A polished finish is made and is a different object entirely, since a gloss surface puts a highlight down the belly and the silhouette stops being the only thing there. A sealed liner is offered where it will be planted. It is sent in one box seated on its foot in a cut bed with both lugs clear, and one person lifts it by the body. Our main studios are in the UK (Birmingham) and Dubai, with additional global workshops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA jar with two small lugs belongs with our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/functional-sculpture-art-furniture\"\u003eart furniture\u003c\/a\u003e; matt black resin with no shine leads to our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/resin-sculptures\"\u003eresin sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e, and a dark silhouette for a hearth joins 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\u003e28cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e33cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDepth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e30cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMatt Black Cast Resin\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Giant Sculptures","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54069535146331,"sku":"X260","price":2902.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0869\/3383\/2027\/files\/X260.jpg?v=1790959338","url":"https:\/\/giant-sculptures.com\/products\/black-matt-lugged-resin-jar-33cm","provider":"Giant Sculptures","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
