Small amber flecks are caught through the top, and a black peak stands on it directly over the pedestal, so that mass reads twice - once through the resin and once above it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eA Rock at One End, a Taper at the Other\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe tapered leg is cast solid and worked back by hand to a single line, which is the difficult half of the build: a taper that wanders shows against nothing, because there is no second leg to read it against. The rock pedestal is worked in fibreglass to a modelled outline and finished matt so it takes no reflection from the resin above it. The amber flecks are placed through the pour and held at the depth they were put, and the peak's position is taken off the pedestal beneath it rather than off the ends of the top. The slab is levelled on both diagonals before anything is bonded down.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is a console for a hall or the end of a room, and because its two ends differ, which way it faces should be settled before it is set in place. The rock pedestal stands on a narrow footprint, which asks for a firm level floor rather than a deep carpet, and the peak is best met at standing height.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eThe Rock, the Taper, and Setting It Level\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eBespoke commissions take 5–6 weeks; standard pieces take 3–4. Most of it is the rock support. Three things can change. The pedestal outline is drawn to your brief, the leg can be set at the other end instead, and the flecks are left out where a plain slab is wanted. Slab length and blade height are both quoted on request. Once the order is placed as one, the set of the peak on the slab is carried through it. The packing is shaped to the torn slab edge and the tapered leg, and moving it is a four-person job. Our main studios are in the UK (Birmingham) and Dubai, with additional global workshops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOne end on a tapered clear leg, the other on rough black rock: this console sits in our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/functional-sculpture-art-furniture\"\u003eart furniture\u003c\/a\u003e, its rock and peak in our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/organic-sculptures\"\u003eorganic sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e, its slab in our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/resin-sculptures\"\u003eresin 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\u003eHeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e76cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e140cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDepth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e65cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCast Resin Slab on a Fibreglass Pedestal\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Giant Sculptures","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53992147059035,"sku":"J643","price":6615.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0869\/3383\/2027\/files\/J643.jpg?v=1791397209","url":"https:\/\/giant-sculptures.com\/products\/clear-slab-black-rock-and-tapered-leg-console-140cm","provider":"Giant Sculptures","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
