A broad, solid trunk, cut flat beneath, divides low into heavy limbs, and each of those divides again and again further up, so the form opens out as it goes. The branches end in small forked tips of two or three short points, and short spurs stand off along their length. The whole casting is left plain and glassy, with nothing cut or worked into the surface, and it is delivered as the one form, standing on its own trunk.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eForks Staggered All the Way Up\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eAn open form in a colourless material is the hardest thing to cast well, because there is no colour to hide behind and every branch is seen from both sides at once. The sections are drawn so that no two branches are the same thickness at the same height, which is what keeps the form from resolving into a diagram. The forks are staggered up the whole height for the same reason. Put them all at one level and the piece reads as a candelabrum; stagger them and it reads as something that grew. The tips are the last decision: each one forks into small points, the way coral does, so the branches finish in a scatter of fine detail rather than in a blunt end.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA console or a wide shelf suits it, and it needs a dark surface behind it or the whole form disappears into a pale wall. Light from one side picks up the edges of every branch, which is where a colourless casting shows its drawing. It stands on the flat foot of its trunk. The forks divide at many different heights, so the form presents as grown rather than drawn, and no two of them make the same silhouette against a wall.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTints, Branching and Delivery\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eStandard pieces take 3–4 weeks and bespoke commissions 5–6. The trunk can be tinted, and the forks are cast in other counts. The trunk is cast at other spans, and the branching is worked out to the size rather than copied. Carried out into the branches, a tint makes a far quieter object than the colourless one. Extra divisions are added where a denser form is wanted. It ships in one crate packed round the branches rather than against them, and it is lifted out by the trunk, never by a branch. Our main studios are in the UK (Birmingham) and Dubai, with additional global workshops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBranching belongs to \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/organic-sculptures\"\u003eorganic sculpture\u003c\/a\u003e before anything else, the colourless body is \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/resin-sculptures\"\u003eresin sculpture\u003c\/a\u003e, and open work of this kind needs the room \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/indoor-sculptures\"\u003eindoor sculpture\u003c\/a\u003e allows for.\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\u003e66cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e68.6cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDepth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e55.9cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCast Clear Resin\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Giant Sculptures","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54077225173339,"sku":"H430","price":3846.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0869\/3383\/2027\/files\/H430.jpg?v=1791997046","url":"https:\/\/giant-sculptures.com\/products\/clear-branching-coral-tree-resin-sculpture-69cm","provider":"Giant Sculptures","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
