{"product_id":"blue-graded-tube-column-acrylic-plinth-105cm","title":"Blue Graded Tube Column Acrylic Plinth - 105cm","description":"\u003ch3\u003eDescription\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis plinth is a ring of upright clear acrylic tubes set side by side, so the whole surface reads as a run of close vertical lines, each tube catching its own highlight. Seen from above, the tube ends make a circle of small rings. The blue is deepest at the top and pales down the tubes until the ring is colourless where it stands on the floor.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eUpright Tubes Standing Side by Side in a Ring\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA ring of tubes reads as one column only if every tube is the same length and stands dead upright, since a single tube leaning off true interrupts the run of highlights round the whole piece. Each is cut square at both ends and polished, and the tubes are set out round the ring at an even spacing so the gaps between them read as part of the pattern. The grade runs through every tube at the same rate, so the blue falls away evenly all round instead of in patches.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA plinth at this height puts whatever stands on it at chest level, which is where a small sculpture wants to be and where a large one does not. It suits an entrance, a landing corner, or anywhere a piece needs ground of its own. The grade reads best against a pale wall, since the clear foot borrows the colour of whatever stands behind it. Light from one side runs a bright line down every tube.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTube Count, Colour Direction and a One-Piece Delivery\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe standard build is 3–4 weeks and the bespoke build 5–6. Tube count and size are set at order, from a few broad tubes to a close ring of fine ones. Colour is open in both directions: the blue can gather at the foot instead of the top, be taken through a green or an amber, or be left out for a colourless column. Height and diameter are cut to order. It travels as one piece in a crate, upright, and is a two-person lift at this height. The tube ends take the knocks in transit and are packed proud of the crate wall. Nothing is put together on site. Our main studios are in the UK (Birmingham) and Dubai, with additional global workshops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUpright tubes set side by side in a ring belong with our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/acrylic-sculptures\"\u003eacrylic sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e; blue thinning out as the tubes descend leads to our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/functional-sculpture-art-furniture\"\u003eart furniture\u003c\/a\u003e, and a plinth for a small sculpture at chest level 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\u003e43cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e105cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGraded Blue Fluted 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":54016470090075,"sku":"Y205","price":3510.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0869\/3383\/2027\/files\/Y205.jpg?v=1790889946","url":"https:\/\/giant-sculptures.com\/products\/blue-graded-tube-column-acrylic-plinth-105cm","provider":"Giant Sculptures","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
