{"product_id":"clear-blossom-branch-resin-bench-260cm","title":"Clear Blossom Branch Resin Bench - 260cm","description":"\u003ch3\u003eDescription\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis bench is one long seat slab of clear resin, so thin that its whole length rests on a section no deeper than a book. Pink blossom branches run along it at intervals, fine sprays of small flowers on thin stems, and they sit at varying depths in the clear body. A stainless steel base carries the slab, set in from both ends so the slab overhangs at each side.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eA Long Seat on Very Little Section\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe proportions are the whole effect: a long seat on very little depth, with the base holding it well inboard so a clear overhang shows at each end. The slab is polished on all six faces including the two ends, which is unusual and deliberate, and it means the piece has no unfinished side however it is approached. The blossom sprays sit close to the middle of the section rather than near either face, so neither the top nor the underside is broken by a stem, and they are grouped at intervals rather than spread evenly, leaving stretches of plain clear resin between them. The base is a plain steel frame, with no ornament to compete with the slab.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe seat sits at a low bench height, with room along it for three or four people. At this length it belongs where it can be seen end on, in a hall, a gallery, a wide landing or along a run of glazing, and it needs a straight wall behind it to read properly. The overhangs are deliberate and should not be built in at the ends. Light along the length is what makes the piece work, so a position parallel to a window earns more than one facing it. Indoor use only.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFour People to Place the Slab\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eCount on the difference between standard and bespoke: 3–4 weeks or 5–6. Bringing it into a room takes care. The slab travels flat and fully supported on a purpose-built pallet with the base packed separately, and it takes four people to place it, one at each corner, because the ends are unsupported until it is down on the frame and a two-person lift puts the whole span through the middle. The base is positioned and levelled first, on a floor checked with a level rather than by eye, and the slab is then lowered straight down onto it and never slid. Settle access before ordering, since a slab this long cannot turn a domestic stair or most landings: tell us the door widths and corridor lengths on the way in, and where the route bends. Slab length is made to order with the base scaled to keep the same overhang proportion. The blossom is offered in this pink, in white, or in a deeper red, with the spray spacing set closer or sparser, and a plain clear slab is available. Our main studios are in the UK (Birmingham) and Dubai, with additional global workshops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA long, slender seat strewn with blossom sits in our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/functional-sculpture-art-furniture\"\u003eart furniture\u003c\/a\u003e; for the bright steel base under it, see our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/metal-sculptures\"\u003emetal sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e or go straight to our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/stainless-steel-sculptures\"\u003estainless steel 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\u003eSize (Slab)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eH12cm, W260cm, D47cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSize (Base)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eH31cm, W176cm, D36cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSeat Height\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e43cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eClear Cast Resin, Stainless Steel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Giant Sculptures","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53957865013595,"sku":"J138","price":18091.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0869\/3383\/2027\/files\/J138.jpg?v=1791385357","url":"https:\/\/giant-sculptures.com\/products\/clear-blossom-branch-resin-bench-260cm","provider":"Giant Sculptures","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
