Two flat plate legs in brushed stainless steel stand well in from the ends, so the slab reads as though it is floating between them.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eA Slab Read Edge On\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThat much clear material is a great deal to look into, and the end of the slab is where this piece is read. The striations run vertically through the full depth, close together and irregular, and the amber and orange streaks sit at different depths among them so they do not line up on one plane. Look at the top face and the streaks are muted under the surface; look at the end and they stack into a band. The brushed steel plates are the only matte surfaces on the object and they are set in from the ends, which leaves a clear overhang at each side and makes a heavy slab read as lighter than it is. No two slabs carry the same streak pattern.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe bench seats two at a push, or serves as a coffee table or a piece for the foot of a bed. It wants to be seen from the end as well as the side, so a position where you walk past it rather than straight at it shows it best. The steel plates are set in from the ends, so it can sit on a rug without the corners sinking. Light from behind is what brings the streaks up out of the slab. It is heavy, and it should be placed once. Indoors only.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eThe Length, the Streaking, and the Legs Beneath\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhere the piece is standard the build is 3–4 weeks, and where it is bespoke 5–6. The slab is the slow part. Three things are open. The length, which can be extended, though beyond a certain point the slab is cast in parts and the seam shows. The streaking, from this dense amber run to a clear slab with no inclusion at all. And the legs, which can be these flat stainless plates, a pair of clear resin blocks that make the whole bench read as one material, or a single central plinth. Slab thickness can also be quoted otherwise. It ships in two crates, slab and legs apart, and four people are wanted for the slab. Our main studios are in the UK (Birmingham) and Dubai, with additional global workshops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis slab bench takes its seat in our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/functional-sculpture-art-furniture\"\u003eart furniture\u003c\/a\u003e; its plate legs bring it into our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/metal-sculptures\"\u003emetal sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e, and their brushed finish into our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/stainless-steel-sculptures\"\u003estainless steel 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\u003e42cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e88cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDepth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e40cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSlab Thickness\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e13cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCast Resin on Stainless Steel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Giant Sculptures","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53969980391771,"sku":"J233","price":11942.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0869\/3383\/2027\/files\/J233.jpg?v=1791375628","url":"https:\/\/giant-sculptures.com\/products\/clear-striated-slab-resin-bench-on-steel-legs-88cm","provider":"Giant Sculptures","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
