{"product_id":"blue-graded-inset-cross-bar-side-table-43cm","title":"Blue Graded Inset Cross Bar Side Table - 43cm","description":"\u003ch3\u003eDescription\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe top of this side table carries a cross-shaped bar let into its upper face, sitting flush so the surface stays usable and reading as a line rather than a ridge. Under the top, two panels cross at right angles and are halved into each other where they meet. The colour is strongest down where the panels reach the floor and thins as it rises through the top.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eA Cross Let Into the Face of the Top\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eLetting one piece of acrylic into another flush is harder than standing it proud, because both the housing and the bar have to be cut to the same section and any daylight between them is magnified by the material around it. The housing is machined to depth in one pass so its floor is flat, the bar is cut a shade full and worked back, and the two are bonded and then finished together across the face so no step can be felt with a hand. The crossing panels are halved the same way. The grade goes in at the cast, which is why the colour runs on through the crossing rather than stopping at it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis table goes where a chair needs something at arm's length: beside a bed, at the corner of a sofa, between two armchairs. The inset cross gives the top a centre, so it suits a single object - a lamp, a glass, a stack of two books - better than a spread of things. At 43cm it meets a chair arm. The graded blue reads strongest where the panels meet a pale floor.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eInlay Depth, Colour Direction and Ordering a Group\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eBuild times separate standard from bespoke: 3–4 weeks against 5–6. Inlay depth and bar width are set at order, and the cross can be run as a single bar or left out for a plain top. The grade can be turned to gather at the top instead of the floor, taken through a green, a grey or an amber, or dropped for a colourless table. The panels can be crossed at another angle, which changes the plan without changing the parts. Size is cut to order. It travels assembled in a crate and is a one-person carry, and a group ordered together is tinted at the same time, so the grade runs evenly across the whole set. Our main studios are in the UK (Birmingham) and Dubai, with additional global workshops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA cross let flush into a blue top belongs with our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/acrylic-sculptures\"\u003eacrylic sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e; two panels halved into one another lead to our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/geometric-sculptures\"\u003egeometric sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e, and a table at arm's length from a chair 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\u003e43cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e40cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDepth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e40cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGraded Blue 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":54016471007579,"sku":"Y214","price":2902.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0869\/3383\/2027\/files\/Y214.jpg?v=1790890629","url":"https:\/\/giant-sculptures.com\/products\/blue-graded-inset-cross-bar-side-table-43cm","provider":"Giant Sculptures","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
