{"product_id":"clear-streaked-blonde-log-resin-sculpture-40cm","title":"Clear Streaked Blonde Log Resin Sculpture - 40cm","description":"\u003ch3\u003eDescription\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis block holds a debarked log whose pale straw timber is run through with dark brown streaks, some fine and some broad, all following the grain from base to top. There is no bark anywhere on it, so the streaks are the only dark on the piece, and the end grain at the top is ringed in amber where the outermost wood sits.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eDark Streaks Running Through a Blonde Log\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe streaking is the timber's own and it is unusually strong here: broad brown bands run beside hairline ones on a straw-coloured ground, and they follow the grain rather than crossing it, so the face reads as a set of vertical marks rather than as a stain. Because the bark has been taken off there is no dark edge to compete with them, which is why they carry as strongly as they do. The amber ring at the top is the outermost wood in section and it frames the end grain cleanly. The whole timber surface is smooth, with no rough face on it at all.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt 40cm it is a smooth-faced block for a hall or a bedside: the faces are unbroken all round and the top is flat. The pale ground with dark marks means it reads as light from a distance and detailed at close range, which suits a position people pass rather than only look at. It sits well with oak, linen and pale plaster. It is heavy for its footprint and stays put. Indoor use only.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eStreaked Timber and Why It Cannot Be Ordered Twice\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eOrdinarily a standard piece needs 3–4 weeks and a bespoke commission 5–6. Streaking like this is a property of the individual log and it cannot be specified, only found, which is the practical thing to know about this piece. A second block ordered later will be a streaked blonde log, but the streaks will fall differently and the balance of pale to dark will not match, so two bought apart read as a related pair rather than a matched one. Where a genuine pair is wanted they are cut in sequence from one log and ordered together. A plain blonde log with little streaking is available for the same money if the marks are not the point, and a heavier-streaked one can be looked for at a wait. Block heights are made to order on the same square. Because every face is smooth it can be slid into position on a felt rather than lifted. Our main studios are in the UK (Birmingham) and Dubai, with additional global workshops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA debarked log with dark streaks through pale straw timber suits our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/organic-sculptures\"\u003eorganic sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e; smooth cast pieces like it fill our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/resin-sculptures\"\u003eresin sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e, and plain cubic forms our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/abstract-sculptures\"\u003eabstract 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\u003e40cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e30cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDepth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e30cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eClear Resin with Solid Timber\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Giant Sculptures","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53958352470363,"sku":"J016","price":3240.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0869\/3383\/2027\/files\/J016.jpg?v=1791373686","url":"https:\/\/giant-sculptures.com\/products\/clear-streaked-blonde-log-resin-sculpture-40cm","provider":"Giant Sculptures","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
