The body is optically clear resin with no tint at all, so what registers across a room is the outline of the back and the reach of the antlers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eAntlers Reaching Sideways Rather Than Upward\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eAntlers carried sideways are a different problem from antlers carried up. Upright antlers stand over the skull and their weight goes down through it; these reach out past the head, so the load arrives at the join as a bending force and the join has to be made to take it. Each antler is therefore pinned into the skull and bonded, not bonded alone, and the pins are set on the axis the antler actually pulls along. They are made as a matched left and right rather than one pattern used twice, since a mirrored antler reads as wrong even to somebody who cannot say why. The body is filled from the hooves upward so no air is trapped in the chest.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt 137cm it stands on a floor where people can walk round it, because the sideways antlers change the whole silhouette between a front and a side view. That also decides where it cannot go: measure the antler spread rather than the body, and keep it out of a doorway line and away from a corridor where somebody will catch a shoulder on it. It reads strongly against a dark wall and almost vanishes against a white one.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eAntler Carriage, Body Tint and Getting It In\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhere the piece is standard the build is 3–4 weeks, and where it is bespoke 5–6. Antler carriage is set at order, from this sideways reach to a full upright rack, and it is the single choice that changes the footprint most. The head angle is open. The resin can be tinted right through - a green, an amber, a smoke or a pale blue - and a frosted finish is offered where a polished one throws too much light. Size is cut to order. Delivery is one crate holding the body and the antlers apart from each other; they join on site without tools, the body needing two people and each antler one. Our main studios are in the UK (Birmingham) and Dubai, with additional global workshops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA stag whose antlers reach out sideways belongs with our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/deer-statues\"\u003edeer statues\u003c\/a\u003e; a head turned aside leads to our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/figurative-sculptures\"\u003efigurative sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e, and untinted clear resin 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\u003e137cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e74cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDepth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e33cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOptically Clear Cast Resin\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Giant Sculptures","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54017123090779,"sku":"R006","price":8640.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0869\/3383\/2027\/files\/R006.jpg?v=1791304016","url":"https:\/\/giant-sculptures.com\/products\/clear-side-antlered-stag-cast-resin-sculpture-137cm","provider":"Giant Sculptures","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
