{"product_id":"blue-moulded-shell-acrylic-chair-with-tubular-arms-86cm","title":"Blue Moulded Shell Acrylic Chair with Tubular Arms - 86cm","description":"\u003ch3\u003eDescription\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA chair moulded throughout in translucent blue acrylic. There is not a sharp edge on it: the back is a soft rectangle with rounded corners, the seat is dished, and the arms are tubes that curve out from the back and turn down into the front legs in one continuous run. The blue reads stronger in the tubes than it does across the back panel.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eOne Translucent Blue Shell, Rounded Throughout\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe blue is not even across the chair, and that is the first thing to notice about it. The tubular members read almost navy where they turn, and the back panel stays a clear mid blue you can read a room through; set the two side by side and the difference is plain. It follows the form of the chair rather than being printed onto it, and no two of these read quite alike. The mould is worked to a high finish so the shell needs no polishing after release, which matters on a compound curve where a polisher would flat the high spots. The seat is dished by a few centimetres, enough to locate a sitter without a cushion.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA translucent chair does something a clear one cannot: it puts colour into a room while still letting the floor show through, so a set round a pale table lifts the whole group without weighing it down. It is a compact chair and will tuck fully under a table. Strong daylight is worth having - the blue is at its best with light coming through it rather than falling on it, so a chair near a window earns its colour and one in a dark corner reads almost grey.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eDepth of Colour, the Tubular Members, and Delivery\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs standard the build runs 3–4 weeks, and as a bespoke commission 5–6. The blue can be run lighter or deeper, and the shell can be moulded in another colour from the same tooling. Arms can be left off for a side chair on the same plan. Chairs are priced one at a time, so a set of four is a quantity here. Each arrives moulded in one piece with nothing to assemble, boxed with the shell suspended clear of the carton walls, because a moulded curve takes a knock differently from a flat sheet. One person can lift it easily. Our main studios are in the UK (Birmingham) and Dubai, with additional global workshops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA shell rounded in translucent blue belongs with our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/organic-sculptures\"\u003eorganic sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e; tubular arms running into the legs connect with our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/acrylic-sculptures\"\u003eacrylic sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e, and a set round a pale table joins our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/functional-sculpture-art-furniture\"\u003eart furniture\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\u003e86cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e44cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDepth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e44cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMoulded Translucent Blue Acrylic\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Giant Sculptures","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54001612751195,"sku":"Y009","price":3375.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0869\/3383\/2027\/files\/Y009.jpg?v=1790882302","url":"https:\/\/giant-sculptures.com\/products\/blue-moulded-shell-acrylic-chair-with-tubular-arms-86cm","provider":"Giant Sculptures","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
