{"product_id":"clear-tower-peak-mountain-cast-resin-sculpture-72cm","title":"Clear Tower Peak Mountain Cast Resin Sculpture - 72cm","description":"\u003ch3\u003eDescription\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eDrawn as a tower rather than as a range, this colourless peak carries dark brown wisps through its lower body and up one flank. A single summit runs up the whole height with subsidiary ridges braced against it low down. Nothing is put under it, so the clear material, the wisps and the outline are the whole of what it has.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eA Mountain Drawn as a Tower\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThat height on a plan that shallow is a proportion no real mountain has, and the object is the better for admitting it. What has to be got right is the section at mid-height, where the piece is carrying everything above it on the least material: too generous and the tower thickens into a slab, too fine and the whole thing reads as unstable whether or not it is. The low ridges are part of that calculation rather than decoration - they widen the foot without widening the silhouette, which is what lets the section above stay as narrow as it does.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt 72cm it fits where a wide piece could not: a narrow console, a return, the end of a run of shelves. Against a plain wall the tower reads as one line from the floor up; in front of a window it becomes a silhouette and the low ridges disappear. It stands high enough to be caught by a sleeve, so a surface away from the through route earns its place.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHeight Against Plan, and Getting It There\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eGive it 3–4 weeks as a standard piece, or 5–6 weeks as a bespoke commission. No real mountain stands at this proportion, and the section at mid-height is what makes it possible here. The proportion is drawn broader, the material takes a tint, and gold leaf is added to the pour. Broadening the plan gives a steadier object and takes away the one thing this piece is for, so the two are worth comparing at full size. It travels upright in a braced case with the summit sleeved and the low ridges bedded, and two people lift it by the foot. Our main studios are in the UK (Birmingham) and Dubai, with additional global workshops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA tower peak with dark wisps in its foot belongs with our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/organic-sculptures\"\u003eorganic sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e; a narrow column of clear casting puts it in our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/resin-sculptures\"\u003eresin sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e, and a form met at eye level beside a doorway suits 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\u003e72cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e55cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDepth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e20cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eClear 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":54065960223067,"sku":"S010","price":2564.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0869\/3383\/2027\/files\/S010.jpg?v=1790847983","url":"https:\/\/giant-sculptures.com\/products\/clear-tower-peak-mountain-cast-resin-sculpture-72cm","provider":"Giant Sculptures","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
