{"product_id":"clear-petal-shell-resin-swivel-chair-80cm","title":"Clear Petal Shell Resin Swivel Chair - 80cm","description":"\u003ch3\u003eDescription\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Clear Petal Shell Resin Swivel Chair puts one cast shell where a seat and a back would normally be two parts. The shell folds up into four broad petals with turned-out tips, dips to a shallow seat pan in the middle, and carries a dark line along its whole edge. It meets a slim metal column on a weighted disc, and the chair both swivels and rises on a gas lift.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eA Four-Petal Shell Serving as Seat and Back\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe four petals are not identical: the two at the back rise higher and sit closer together to give something to lean against, and the two at the sides turn out further to clear the sitter's arms. The dark edge line follows the whole rim, including the turned-out tips, and it is the sharpest feature on an otherwise soft form. Colour appears as swirls that follow the fold of each petal rather than crossing it, and no two shells fall the same way, so the pattern is not something that can be specified from a drawing. The shell is polished on both faces, because the underside of the pan is in plain view from across a room, and it meets the column on a flat fixing plate rather than a spider.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt 80cm overall it sits in the proportion of a vanity chair rather than a dining one. It suits a dressing table, a bedroom window or a study, and the swivel means it needs no room to be pulled out and turned. The open petals leave the sitter's back visible, so it reads as an object from every side and does not have to be pushed against anything. It is a chair for a sitting, not for a working day. Indoor use only.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFive Shell Tints, Four Column Finishes, Specified Apart\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eDelivery follows a 3–4 week build as standard, or a 5–6 week build if bespoke. Shell and column are chosen independently, which is the point worth understanding before ordering, because the two decisions pull in different directions. Five shell tints are made: colourless, black-swirled, amber, blue-inked, and a green-to-blue graduation. Four column and disc finishes are offered: satin brass, brushed brass, polished chrome and black. A colourless shell on polished chrome disappears into a room; the amber shell on brushed brass is the warmest pairing and the black-swirled shell on a black column the most graphic. A fixed column is substituted for the gas lift where a set height is wanted, which is the sensible choice at a dressing table used by one person. The chair arrives with shell and column separate and goes together with four bolts through the fixing plate, a ten-minute job for one person with the shell face down on something soft. Our main studios are in the UK (Birmingham) and Dubai, with additional global workshops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA four-petal shell on a gas-lift column earns this chair its place among our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/functional-sculpture-art-furniture\"\u003eart furniture\u003c\/a\u003e; the column and weighted disc tie it to our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/metal-sculptures\"\u003emetal sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e, and the turned-out petals to our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/organic-sculptures\"\u003eorganic 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\u003eSize\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eH80cm, W61cm, D55cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBase\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeighted Disc, Swivel and Gas Lift\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCast Resin Shell, Metal Column\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Giant Sculptures","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53957865963867,"sku":"J062","price":3375.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0869\/3383\/2027\/files\/J062.jpg?v=1791378513","url":"https:\/\/giant-sculptures.com\/products\/clear-petal-shell-resin-swivel-chair-80cm","provider":"Giant Sculptures","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
