The resin is a deep teal, nearly black in the mane and the shoulders and opening to a clear sea green across the chest and the flank where the light comes through. Its mane rises in tight curls above an open mouth.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eA Carved Ball Under a Teal Paw\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA tint this deep shows every flaw in reverse: a bubble that would vanish in a clear casting turns into a bright pin of light against the teal, so the mane, with its many hollows, is the hardest part to cast clean. The ball is carved with an open pattern so the light can pass into it, and it is kept a shade paler than the paw that rests on it. The curls are cut deep enough to hold their own shadow, which is all that keeps a dark mane from reading as a single mass.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt 38cm a deep windowsill or a sideboard suits the lion, and two of them can stand either side of a door, looking outward. A dark teal wants a pale ground behind it, white plaster or light oak, or it closes into a silhouette. Turn the ball toward the approach, since that side is its front.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTeal Depth, the Pair and Delivery\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eOrdinarily a standard piece needs 3–4 weeks and a bespoke commission 5–6. The teal can be taken paler toward aqua or deeper still, and blue, amber or a gilded clear version can be cast instead. Its companion, the teal lion with the ball under the other forepaw, can be set opposite it; the price covers a single lion, so a pair is two orders, and both are cast at whatever size is chosen. Any size can be made. Its own fitted crate carries it, and one person can lift it under the hindquarters. Our main studios are in the UK (Birmingham) and Dubai, with additional global workshops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA teal guardian lion keeping a carved ball underfoot belongs with our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/lion-statues\"\u003elion statues\u003c\/a\u003e; a curled mane over an open mouth leads to our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/figurative-sculptures\"\u003efigurative sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e, and deep teal resin clearing to sea green joins our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/resin-sculptures\"\u003eresin 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\u003e38cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e33cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDepth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e24cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTeal-Tinted 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":54259996721499,"sku":"R089-2","price":2564.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0869\/3383\/2027\/files\/R089__2.jpg?v=1791306811","url":"https:\/\/giant-sculptures.com\/products\/deep-teal-guardian-lion-with-ball-on-the-left-resin-sculpture-38cm","provider":"Giant Sculptures","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
