The lion's head and mane are left glassy and cut in loose, flowing locks, while the body beneath them is frosted, so the mane reads clear against a milky mass. The column is square and almost black, with a rough, broken surface and a plain foot, which makes the clear figure on its top the brightest thing in a room.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eA Glassy Mane Above a Frosted Body\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eClear and frosted resin meet in one figure here, and the line where one gives way to the other is settled before the surface is finished, since a frosted area cannot be taken back to clear without the change showing. The mane is cut in long separate locks that catch the light along their edges and is polished to full clarity, so at a distance it reads as glass. The column is fibreglass given a rough, stony surface in a near-black colour, a deliberate contrast with the smooth figure it carries, and its top is shaped to seat the lion.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt 164cm the lion sits at about eye level, so the piece belongs on the floor where it can be walked up to: either side of an entrance, at the turn of a stair or at the end of a long hall. The column almost disappears against a dark wall and stands out against a pale one, while the clear lion takes whatever light falls on it, so a window or a light from above suits it best.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eClear, Frosted and Getting It Home\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eFrom order, a standard piece runs to 3–4 weeks and a bespoke commission to 5–6. Lion and column are sold together as one piece, and the price covers both. The mane can be frosted to match the body, or the whole lion polished clear, and the column can be finished in a different dark tone or given a smoother surface. Columns of other heights are made to order. Lion and column travel in one crate, each packed in its own compartment, and two people should handle the column. Our main studios are in the UK (Birmingham) and Dubai, with additional global workshops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA clear lion lifted high on near-black fibreglass belongs with our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/lion-statues\"\u003elion statues\u003c\/a\u003e; a glassy mane over a frosted body leads to our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/figurative-sculptures\"\u003efigurative sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e, and clear resin set over a rough stony pillar 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\u003e42cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e14.5cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDepth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e14.5cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBase\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e20.5 x 20.5 x 122cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eClear and Frosted Cast Resin Lion on a Dark Fibreglass Column\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Giant Sculptures","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54263532749147,"sku":"R098","price":3849.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0869\/3383\/2027\/files\/R098.jpg?v=1791370812","url":"https:\/\/giant-sculptures.com\/products\/clear-lion-on-a-dark-fibreglass-column-resin-sculpture-164cm","provider":"Giant Sculptures","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
