{"product_id":"clear-compartment-case-with-coloured-spheres-180cm","title":"Clear Compartment Case with Coloured Spheres - 180cm","description":"\u003ch3\u003eDescription\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis clear acrylic case is long and shallow, divided inside into two ranks of open compartments, one above the other, with a small clasp at each corner. Metal spheres sit in some of the compartments and not others, in white, navy and red, distributed rather than ordered, so the case reads as a collection part way through being arranged. It is shallow from front to back, more a wall piece than a cabinet.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTwo Ranks of Compartments and the Spheres In Them\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA case with an internal grid is two problems at once. The outer box has to stay square over its whole length or the clasps at the ends will not meet, and the internal divisions have to be located precisely enough that each sphere sits in its compartment without touching two walls at the same time. Because everything is colourless, every division is seen through every other one, so a divider even slightly out of upright shows as a kink in a line that runs the whole length. The spheres are the only opaque elements, and they are matched for diameter so the compartments can all be the same size.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eShallow as it is, it belongs on a wall and not on the floor: along a corridor, over a run of low cupboards, in an office that wants something which is neither shelving nor a picture. The spheres read as colour at a distance and as objects close up, which is the reason to hang it at eye level rather than high. A plain wall behind is worth having, since the case is colourless and the wall shows through every compartment.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSphere Count, Compartment Size and Fixing It Up\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eBuild times separate standard from bespoke: 3–4 weeks against 5–6. Sphere count and colour mix are both open, and the compartments can be left empty for a case to fill yourself. Compartment size is set at order, which decides the sphere diameter that will sit in them. Length is cut to order, and the case can be made a single rank rather than two. A tint can be put through the acrylic. How it is fixed or stood is settled at order, since a case this shallow can be wall-hung or set on a surface and the two want different work at the back. It arrives with the spheres bagged separately. Two people are wanted at this length. Our main studios are in the UK (Birmingham) and Dubai, with additional global workshops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMetal spheres in white, navy and red sit with our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/acrylic-sculptures\"\u003eacrylic sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e; two ranks of open compartments lead to our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/geometric-sculptures\"\u003egeometric sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e, and a shallow case along a corridor wall 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\u003e40cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e180cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDepth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e20cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eClear Cast Acrylic with Metal Spheres\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Giant Sculptures","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54015817515355,"sku":"Y134","price":4317.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0869\/3383\/2027\/files\/Y134.jpg?v=1790887285","url":"https:\/\/giant-sculptures.com\/products\/clear-compartment-case-with-coloured-spheres-180cm","provider":"Giant Sculptures","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
