Its heart is a deep, rounded bowl of water, and from the rim many long, thin tendrils rise high above it, branching and curling as they climb, like rivulets flung upward and caught. It is colourless throughout and stands on the rounded foot of the bowl.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eA Bowl of Water Throwing Up Tendrils\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhat makes this splash is the contrast between the bowl and the tendrils. The bowl is heavy and rounded, its walls folding and rippling where the water gathers; the tendrils are the opposite, long and fine, each one drawn as a single thread that thins to a droplet at its tip. They are spaced round the whole rim and allowed to lean and cross, which makes the crown look spontaneous instead of arranged, and their different heights give the piece an uneven, living skyline. In clear resin the fine threads catch light along their whole length.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt 180cm it needs the floor of a big space, an entrance, a hotel lobby, a gallery or the end of a long living room, with height above and room to walk all round. The tendrils read best against something dark, a wall, a window at dusk or planting seen through glass. Light it from above so the threads glitter, and keep it away from busy patterns, which would swallow the fine detail. From the door it is a burst of light; beside it, the tendrils become a forest.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTendrils, a Tint and Getting It Into a Room\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs standard the build runs 3–4 weeks, and as a bespoke commission 5–6. The tendrils can be made fewer and bolder or more and finer, a tint can be brought into the bowl, aqua, blue or amber, fading before the threads begin, and it can be given a marble base, black or white. A tinted bowl anchors the crown and makes the clear threads look lighter still. It is crated upright with each tendril protected, and it should be raised by the bowl alone, never by a tendril. Our main studios are in the UK (Birmingham) and Dubai, with additional global workshops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA clear bowl of water throwing up a forest of branching tendrils stands with our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/resin-sculptures\"\u003eresin sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e, our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/contemporary-modern-sculptures\"\u003econtemporary and modern sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e and our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/indoor-sculptures\"\u003eindoor 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\u003e180cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e170cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDepth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e130cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCast Clear Resin\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Giant Sculptures","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54209058373979,"sku":"L179","price":18627.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0869\/3383\/2027\/files\/L179.jpg?v=1791893115","url":"https:\/\/giant-sculptures.com\/products\/clear-tendril-crown-splash-resin-sculpture-180cm","provider":"Giant Sculptures","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
