The column has a fluted band below its cap and a light scatter of gold leaf down the shaft. Both lion and column are supplied.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eA Clear Lion High on a Flecked Column\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith the lion left clear, the piece is about light rather than colour: the mane and the collar are cut deep so their shadows give the head its form, and every face is polished so the flakes glint inside. The flakes in the lion are few, kept to the mane. The scatter of leaf in the shaft is light, which keeps the column airy beneath the lion. The fluted band gives the top of the shaft a capital, and the edges run sharp to the foot. No two castings place the flakes alike, so each column has its own scatter.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt 151cm it is a floor piece that lifts the lion to eye level, beside a doorway, along a hall or where a stair turns. Set against a dark wall the clear lion and column shine; against white they read as a pale outline with flashes of gold. A light directed at the lion from above makes the clear resin shine.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eLion Finish, the Column and Delivery\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eGive it 3–4 weeks as a standard piece, or 5–6 weeks as a bespoke commission. The lion can be gilded, tinted or left clear as here, and the leaf in the column can be made denser or left out. Silver or copper flakes can stand in for the gold, and a tint of smoke or amber can run through the lion. The capital can be carved plain instead of fluted. A mirror-image lion can be ordered for a pair, and the column made to a different height. Crated at full length, it needs two people on site. Our main studios are in the UK (Birmingham) and Dubai, with additional global workshops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA clear guardian lion raised on a flecked column belongs with our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/lion-statues\"\u003elion statues\u003c\/a\u003e; a deep-cut mane and collar lead to our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/figurative-sculptures\"\u003efigurative sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e, and clear resin glinting with gold joins our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/resin-sculptures\"\u003eresin 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\u003e21cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e12cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDepth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e15cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBase\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e15.5 x 15.5 x 130cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eClear Cast Resin with Gold Leaf\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Giant Sculptures","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54260087259483,"sku":"R097-1-2","price":5197.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0869\/3383\/2027\/files\/R097-1__2.jpg?v=1791308285","url":"https:\/\/giant-sculptures.com\/products\/clear-guardian-lion-on-a-gold-flecked-column-resin-sculpture-151cm","provider":"Giant Sculptures","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
