{"product_id":"clear-concentric-ring-acrylic-side-table-on-stem-71cm","title":"Clear Concentric Ring Acrylic Side Table on Stem - 71cm","description":"\u003ch3\u003eDescription\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe top of this acrylic table is a thick clear disc cut with a set of concentric rings that step in from the rim and draw down to one raised point at the middle, so the whole surface reads as a still ripple caught the moment after something touched it. Below it a slim polished metal stem drops to a cast foot with a rippled skirt.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eRings Cut In From the Rim to a Single Point\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eConcentric work is unforgiving because every ring is measured against the one outside it, and the error accumulates inward. The rings here are cut into the upper face at a shallow pitch that keeps each step legible without turning the disc into a set of grooves, and the innermost of them closes on a small raised boss that has to sit dead centre or the whole figure looks pulled to one side. Because the body is clear, each ring is read twice: once as the cut itself and once as its own shadow on the underside, which is why the depth of cut matters more here than it would on a tinted body. The foot is cast separately with a rippled skirt picked up from the same idea, and the stem is polished to hold a highlight down its length. Ring spacing varies slightly between tables.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt 71cm this is a table to stand at or work over, not one to reach down to, so it earns its place in a hall, beside a high-backed chair, or in a bar area where a drink wants a level surface. The concentric top wants an overhead light more than a lamp: a light directly above throws the rings down onto the floor as a second figure, while a light from the side flattens them. Keep the plan clear all round. It is a round top on a single stem and it looks wrong pushed against a wall.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eRing Pitch, Stem Length and the Choice of Foot\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eOrdinarily a standard piece needs 3–4 weeks and a bespoke commission 5–6. Ring pitch can be opened up or closed in, and the boss at the centre can be left out for a plain dished top. The stem is offered in a brushed finish as well as the polished one, and the cast foot can be supplied colourless instead of dark. A drawing is held for this design, so the disc can be cut to another diameter without re-drawing it from scratch. The disc, the stem and the foot travel as three items and assemble with a threaded collar under the top, which means the parts go up a stair separately. One person can carry the stem and foot together. The disc is a two-person lift. Our main studios are in the UK (Birmingham) and Dubai, with additional global workshops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRings cut in from the rim to one point belong with our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/acrylic-sculptures\"\u003eacrylic sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e; a slim stem over a cast foot leads to our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/metal-sculptures\"\u003emetal sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e, and a stand-up table for 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\u003eDiameter\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e60cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e71cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eClear Cast Acrylic with Polished Metal\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Giant Sculptures","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54003983647067,"sku":"Y054","price":2429.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0869\/3383\/2027\/files\/Y054.jpg?v=1790884235","url":"https:\/\/giant-sculptures.com\/products\/clear-concentric-ring-acrylic-side-table-on-stem-71cm","provider":"Giant Sculptures","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
