{"product_id":"colourless-glacial-cast-resin-low-table-79cm","title":"Colourless Glacial Cast Resin Low Table - 79cm","description":"\u003ch3\u003eDescription\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA low cast table with a round top. The upper surface is level but not flat: it ripples in broad concentric swells, as though a still pool had been caught mid movement. From its underside four legs run down, each one an irregular tapering form with a rounded foot, none of them matching another. The whole thing is water clear and there is no seam anywhere on it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eA Rippled Round Top on Unmatched Melt-Form Legs\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe table is built on a contradiction that makes it work: the top is disciplined and the legs are not. Seen from above the plan is a true circle, and the surface ripples in rings that all share a rough centre, so it reads as a designed pattern. Seen from the side the four legs are wholly irregular, thick where they leave the slab and narrowing unevenly to their feet, each with its own set of hollows and swells. Nothing about them repeats. Because the material is colourless and the mass is considerable, the legs read darkest where they are thickest and almost vanish at the feet, which makes the top look as if it is resting on very little. Objects placed on the top are visible from underneath, distorted by the ripples above them.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSet it at the centre of the seating, where it can be walked round and seen from every side, never pushed against a wall or a sofa. The rippled top is level enough for a tray, a book or a glass, though a small object will find the low point of a ripple and stay there. Given a rug beneath it the pattern of the rug shows up through the whole slab, which is one of the better reasons to own a clear table. A window behind it and a plain floor beneath it shows the legs at their best. Indoors only.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eThe Plan Outline, the Depth of the Ripples, and the Leg Count\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eMaking a standard piece takes 3–4 weeks, and making a bespoke one 5–6. The sheer mass at this size is the slow part. The plan outline is where to start, from this circle through to a soft oval, a rounded rectangle or a plan with a deeper bite out of one edge. The depth of the ripples on the top, from this pronounced swell to a nearly flat surface with only a suggestion of movement. And the leg count, which can be four as here, three for a lighter reading, or a solid skirt all round. Plan and height are both yours to name. It comes on a pallet in one crate, and four hands are wanted to place a table this wide. Our main studios are in the UK (Birmingham) and Dubai, with additional global workshops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCast clear and rippled like ice, this glacial table belongs in our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/resin-sculptures\"\u003eresin sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e; it is furniture first, among our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/functional-sculpture-art-furniture\"\u003eart furniture\u003c\/a\u003e, and its melting legs bring it close to our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/organic-sculptures\"\u003eorganic 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\u003e34cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e79cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDepth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e79cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHigh-Clarity Cast Resin\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Giant Sculptures","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53965303710043,"sku":"J117","price":6276.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0869\/3383\/2027\/files\/J117.jpg?v=1791385024","url":"https:\/\/giant-sculptures.com\/products\/colourless-glacial-cast-resin-low-table-79cm","provider":"Giant Sculptures","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
