{"product_id":"clear-gold-fleck-upright-mountain-resin-sculpture-40cm","title":"Clear Gold Fleck Upright Mountain Resin Sculpture - 40cm","description":"\u003ch3\u003eDescription\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA colourless massif drawn upward rather than along, with gold leaf flecked through the body. The flakes are scattered from the foot to the summit, most of them caught in the main body of the peak. A single summit rises at the back and a lower shoulder steps forward from it, and no face on the piece repeats another. It stands on the surface with nothing beneath it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eDrawn Upward Where a Range Is Drawn Along\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA mountain is usually drawn wider than it is tall, which is how a range is seen from a distance. This one inverts that, and the inversion changes what the object is: a form higher than its plan is wide reads as a peak seen from close to, from the valley floor rather than from the next ridge. That in turn decides the modelling. A distant range can be drawn in broad planes because distance flattens it; a near peak cannot, so the faces here carry finer steps and sharper changes of direction than a range twice its size would need.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt 40cm it belongs among other things rather than alone, and a bookshelf, a desk or the end of a console suits it. Beside a piece that spreads sideways it reads as a near peak against a distant view. It needs light from above and to one side; lit from the front alone the forward shoulder loses its separation from the summit behind it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eProportion, a Tint, and Getting It Home\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eMaking a standard piece takes 3–4 weeks, and making a bespoke one 5–6. Its height runs past its plan, so it is met as a summit from the valley rather than as a range from the next ridge, and the modelling follows from that. The proportion is drawn to order, the flake is spread thinner, and a tint is carried through the body. A version drawn wider becomes a distant range and is a quite different object, which is the choice worth making first. It comes in a padded box, the summit sleeved and the shoulder faced on its own, and both hands under the base take it out. Our main studios are in the UK (Birmingham) and Dubai, with additional global workshops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA massif that stands rather than spreads belongs with our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/organic-sculptures\"\u003eorganic sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e; gold through an upright massif sets it in our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/resin-sculptures\"\u003eresin sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e, and a near peak met close to suits 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\u003e25cm\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 Resin with Gold Leaf Flecks\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Giant Sculptures","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54065955373403,"sku":"S011","price":2227.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0869\/3383\/2027\/files\/S011.jpg?v=1790849273","url":"https:\/\/giant-sculptures.com\/products\/clear-gold-fleck-upright-mountain-resin-sculpture-40cm","provider":"Giant Sculptures","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
