The disc is stained near-black, with the grain still readable through the colour, and three circular openings are cut through it. Each opening sits directly over one of the ovoids, so looking down you see into the top of a clear egg form, and looking from a seat you see three of them carrying a dark disc.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eThree Openings Over Three Clear Ovoids\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eSetting a flat disc on three curved forms is a locating problem rather than a load one. An ovoid has no flat, so each one is seated into a shallow dished recess cut into the underside of the disc, and the three recesses have to be cut to the ovoids that will actually go into them - the forms vary by a few millimetres and a recess cut to a nominal radius leaves the table rocking on two of three. The openings are then cut concentric with the recesses, which is what makes the view down onto each ovoid look deliberate rather than approximate. The timber is stained rather than painted so the grain stays visible, and the cut edges of the openings are sealed, since an end grain in a stained top will otherwise drink.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNothing on this table sticks out: the top is round and all three feet sit within its outline, which makes it easy to live with somewhere people walk past it all day. It stands at cushion height. The three ovoids catch and hold whatever light is in the room, so it does more in a room with a lamp low down than in one lit from the ceiling. On a pale floor the eggs read bright and the disc reads as a shadow above them.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eThe Ovoids, the Timber, and Bringing It In\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhether it is standard or bespoke sets the build: 3–4 weeks or 5–6. The timber and its stain are both specified with the order, and a clear or coloured acrylic disc can replace the timber if you would rather see through the whole table. The openings can be left out for a solid top. The disc and the three ovoids travel separately - the ovoids are the heavy part and each is crated on its own - and the disc is lowered onto them on site, locating in its recesses without fixings. Two people are wanted for the disc. Nothing wider than the disc has to come through a door, and the ovoids will go through anything. Our main studios are in the UK (Birmingham) and Dubai, with additional global workshops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThree openings over three clear ovoids belong with our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/acrylic-sculptures\"\u003eacrylic sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e; a black disc set on egg forms leads to our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/organic-sculptures\"\u003eorganic sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e, and a low table with nothing sticking out 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\u003eDiameter\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e90cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e40cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBlack-Stained Timber with Clear Cast Acrylic\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Giant Sculptures","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54003700728155,"sku":"Y044","price":11273.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0869\/3383\/2027\/files\/Y044.jpg?v=1790883313","url":"https:\/\/giant-sculptures.com\/products\/black-timber-disc-acrylic-low-table-on-three-ovoids-90cm","provider":"Giant Sculptures","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
