{"product_id":"clear-ice-cut-lion-column-resin-sculpture-73cm","title":"Clear Ice-Cut Lion Column Resin Sculpture - 73cm","description":"\u003ch3\u003eDescription\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis short column has its faces cut into broken planes and a narrower stepped cap at the top, where a guardian lion sits with flecks of gold caught in its mane and chest. The leaf in the shaft is laid in broad patches, bright where it sits near a face and olive where it lies deep. Lion and column are supplied together.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eBroad Gold Patches in a Short Ice-Cut Shaft\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eOn a short shaft the leaf is the drawing, so it is laid in broad patches rather than a scatter, each set at its own depth so the gold reads as layers inside the block. The faces are cut into shallow planes that catch the patches from different angles as you pass. The stepped cap is cut narrower than the shaft, which gives the lion a plinth of its own, and the lion's curls are cut deep before the whole piece is polished. No two castings lay the patches alike, so each column carries its own pattern of gold.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt 73cm it sits beside a sofa, on a wide hearth or at the end of a low bench, where the lion is met at the height of a seated person's shoulder. A lamp to one side wakes the gold; a plain wall behind keeps the patches readable. A pair can flank a fireplace, each priced singly. It needs only a level floor and nothing tall close behind it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eLeaf, Lion and Delivery\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eBuild times separate standard from bespoke: 3–4 weeks against 5–6. The patches of leaf can be gathered more tightly, scattered, swapped for silver or omitted, and the faces can be polished smooth instead of cut. The lion may be clear as here, gilded or tinted. It comes in one crate with the lion wrapped separately, and it is placed by one pair of hands, taken by the shaft and never by the cap. Both parts are polished all over before they leave the workshop. Our main studios are in the UK (Birmingham) and Dubai, with additional global workshops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA short ice-cut shaft with a lion on its cap belongs with our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/lion-statues\"\u003elion statues\u003c\/a\u003e; a stepped cap that lifts the animal leads to our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/figurative-sculptures\"\u003efigurative sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e, and gold set in broad patches deep in the block 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\u003e16.7cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e12.5cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDepth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e17.7cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBase\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e18 x 18 x 56.3cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIce-Textured 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":54260546765147,"sku":"R283","price":2767.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0869\/3383\/2027\/files\/R283.jpg?v=1791315022","url":"https:\/\/giant-sculptures.com\/products\/clear-ice-cut-lion-column-resin-sculpture-73cm","provider":"Giant Sculptures","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
