{"product_id":"blue-to-amber-graded-acrylic-console-table-140cm","title":"Blue to Amber Graded Acrylic Console Table - 140cm","description":"\u003ch3\u003eDescription\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA console table graded in two colours rather than one: a deep blue across the top that fades to colourless around the middle of the legs and then warms again into amber where the material meets the floor. The top is a thin slab and it stands on two pairs of flat blades, one pair at each end of the span.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eBlue at the Top, Amber at the Floor\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA grade with a colour at both ends is cast rather than dyed, and the two pigments have to meet without making a third. Blue running into amber will go green through the transition if the densities are wrong or the two are brought together too quickly, so the middle of the sheet is left deliberately clear and both colours are drawn in from their own end toward it. That clear band is why the piece reads as two colours rather than a muddle. Each blade is then cut so its own length spans the whole grade - a blade cut from the middle of the sheet would be colourless top to bottom and would not match the blade beside it. The top is cut from the blue end alone, which is what puts the deepest colour where the eye meets it first.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis console shows best where it can be seen from a distance and from the side, because the grade needs the full height of the legs to be read: along a hallway wall, or across the end of an open-plan room. It stands at the usual height for a lamp and a bowl. Its shallow depth keeps a corridor clear. A pale floor is worth having, since the amber at the foot of each blade casts warm colour down onto it and reads as a shadow with a colour of its own.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eThe Two-Ended Grade, the Blades, and Delivery\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eProduction takes approximately 3–4 weeks for a standard piece, or 5–6 weeks for a bespoke commission. Either end of the grade can be specified in another colour, and the clear band between them can be widened or narrowed. The blades can be grouped differently or set as single uprights, and the console can be made to another length. The top and the four blades travel flat and are bonded together on site along the top edge of each blade, which keeps the crate slim enough to come round a half-landing. Two people are wanted for the top. Each blade is sleeved separately, as the graded faces mark more visibly than clear acrylic. Our main studios are in the UK (Birmingham) and Dubai, with additional global workshops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBlue at the top and amber at the floor belong with our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/functional-sculpture-art-furniture\"\u003eart furniture\u003c\/a\u003e; a clear band where the two colours part leads to our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/contemporary-modern-sculptures\"\u003econtemporary and modern sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e, and a console for the length of a hallway 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\u003e75cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e140cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDepth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e35cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBlue to Amber Graded 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":54001627824475,"sku":"Y025","price":6480.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0869\/3383\/2027\/files\/Y025.jpg?v=1790883217","url":"https:\/\/giant-sculptures.com\/products\/blue-to-amber-graded-acrylic-console-table-140cm","provider":"Giant Sculptures","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
