Frosted blue running to violet down the band, with the trumpet the palest part of it. A block of black marble goes with it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eEdges Counted at Every Reversal of the Band\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA band that folds rather than turns shows its edge at every reversal, and the edges are what the eye counts rather than the faces between them. The folds are spaced unevenly on purpose, so the count never settles into a rhythm the eye can run ahead of. The body is why a folded band is read one turn at a time: a frosted surface returns the light where it lands, so nothing behind shows through. Frosted over both faces and inside every fold, which on a folded band is most of the surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt belongs on a hall console with the trumpet carried above the eye. A dark wall at its back, because the frosted body is pale and needs an outline. Light reaching into the trumpet from above is what the piece is arranged for; from below only the marble gains. The trumpet reads across a room and the folds only separate from a pace away.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eAn Extra Fold, a Wider Trumpet, and Two People\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs standard the build runs 3–4 weeks, and as a bespoke commission 5–6. Ask us for an extra fold, a wider trumpet, or a stone of another plan. Add a fold and the band grows in height, since the turns keep their own pitch rather than being pressed into the same rise. The stone is cut to whatever plan suits where it goes. Band and marble share a crate and go into position together. Two people: one steadies the trumpet while the other takes the foot. Our main studios are in the UK (Birmingham) and Dubai, with additional global workshops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA frosted blue-violet band opening at the crown belongs to our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/organic-sculptures\"\u003eorganic sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e; its blue and violet run joins our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/resin-sculptures\"\u003eresin sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e, and its trumpet belongs above eye level, among 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\u003e84cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e22.3cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDepth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e18.3cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBase\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e24 x 20 x 6cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCast Blue and Purple Resin on Black Marble\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Giant Sculptures","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54147348595035,"sku":"Z554","price":1888.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0869\/3383\/2027\/files\/Z554.jpg?v=1790776140","url":"https:\/\/giant-sculptures.com\/products\/blue-and-purple-folded-band-resin-sculpture-90cm","provider":"Giant Sculptures","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
