There is no joint anywhere on it and no separate leg - the folds are the structure.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eOne Ribbon Bent Into a Squared S\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe ribbon is formed in one piece and the two folds are set at their radius in the mould, so the section stays even round both of them - which is the difficult part, because a fold that thins on its outside face will show as a bright line. Every surface is polished, the inner faces of the folds included, and the seat face is worked last so its flat is not lost while the folds are being brought up. The two feet are finished flat and brought to one plane, because a bench on two folds rocks on any error a four-legged one would absorb.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA hallway, a bedroom or a broad landing suits it. The arch at one end and the U at the other give it a front and a back worth deciding, and the folds leave the floor visible underneath, which keeps it from reading as a block. The seat is flat for its whole span, so a cushion sits on it without sliding.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eThe Folds, the Span, and Ordering More Than One\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt takes 3–4 weeks to make as standard, and 5–6 weeks to make bespoke. Most of it is the folded ribbon. Three of its features are open. The fold radius is drawn to order, a colour can be taken through the whole ribbon, and the seat is made longer between the folds where more than two are to sit. Tell us the seat length and the seat height. Nothing holds the radius of each fold between separate orders. It is crated round the two outer folds and the seat face and needs two people to walk it into place. Our main studios are in the UK (Birmingham) and Dubai, with additional global workshops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOne clear ribbon folded twice belongs with our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/geometric-sculptures\"\u003egeometric sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e; as a bench it joins our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/functional-sculpture-art-furniture\"\u003eart furniture\u003c\/a\u003e, and the casting our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/resin-sculptures\"\u003eresin 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\u003e45cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e102cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDepth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e40cm\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":53992082538843,"sku":"J633","price":5130.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0869\/3383\/2027\/files\/J633.jpg?v=1791395500","url":"https:\/\/giant-sculptures.com\/products\/clear-folded-ribbon-cast-resin-bench-102cm","provider":"Giant Sculptures","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
