Cloudy swirls run through the material, and they read most clearly at the springing of each arch.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eArches Cut Out From Under a Solid Disc\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe disc is cast thick and the relief is modelled into the mould, so the broken-ice surface is part of the pour rather than a treatment on top of it. The arches are cut and then ground back through the full depth of the wall, which is slow work because the inside of an arch has to be brought to the same polish as the outside or the piece reads dull from a seated position. The cloudy swirls are a property of the material and are allowed to fall where they fall.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRound in plan, this coffee table is made for the middle of a ring of seats, where it meets every chair and sofa on equal terms and never needs lining up with any of them. The arches are the part worth seeing, so it works better standing clear on a floor or a rug than pushed against a seat where they are hidden.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eThe Arch Rise, the Relief, and Moving a Drum\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA standard piece takes 3–4 weeks to make, and a bespoke commission 5–6. Most of it is the arched wall. You settle three things. The number of arches can be changed, the relief on the top can be worked deeper or brought almost flat, and the drum can be supplied tinted where a clear piece would disappear against a pale floor. Whatever top diameter and overall height you need is quoted. The group is made as one so that the rise of the arches reads the same on each piece. It travels with the arch springings and the disc rim packed clear, and four people can place it. Our main studios are in the UK (Birmingham) and Dubai, with additional global workshops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eArched underneath like a small rotunda, this drum is counted with our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/functional-sculpture-art-furniture\"\u003eart furniture\u003c\/a\u003e, and its broken-ice top keeps it close to our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/contemporary-modern-sculptures\"\u003econtemporary and modern sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e and our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/indoor-sculptures\"\u003eindoor sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\n\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\u003eDiameter\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e96cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eClear Cast Resin\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Giant Sculptures","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53983188582747,"sku":"J498","price":8573.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0869\/3383\/2027\/files\/J498.jpg?v=1791389900","url":"https:\/\/giant-sculptures.com\/products\/clear-arched-drum-rippled-top-resin-coffee-table-96cm","provider":"Giant Sculptures","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
