The blades are wide and shallow, each tapering to a point like a leaf rather than breaking up like spray, and each passes over one neighbour and under the next so that no single one of them is on top. A broad band of the same frosted aqua sweeps round them at the foot. The frosting is even over all of them, which is what keeps the colour reading as something inside the material and not on it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eBlades That Pass Over and Under One Another\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eAn overlap is where a frosted finish usually fails. Two surfaces meeting at a narrow angle cannot both be reached with the same stroke, and the gap between them comes up glossier than the open faces on either side, which then reads as a line of dirt. Here the frost runs evenly into every overlap, so the narrow angles where one blade passes over the next are as soft as the open faces, and nothing reads as a line. The band sweeping round the foot is frosted to the same grain, and the aqua deepens towards the centre, where the blades gather most thickly, so the whole piece reads as one soft surface from every side.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is the same piece from every side, so it wants a position that can be walked round rather than one against a wall. It has no front and no best angle, and put into a corner it gives up the quality that separates it from a wall piece. It is wide and low enough to sit on a table without dominating it, and it reads well from directly above, which makes it unusually good on a low table in a seating group. Daylight suits it better than a lamp: the frosting spreads whatever falls on it, and a single hard source just makes one blade bright and leaves the rest flat.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKeeping the Frost Where They Touch, and Delivery\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eDelivery follows a 3–4 week build as standard, or a 5–6 week build if bespoke. The blades pass over and under one another and each has to keep its even frosted surface where they touch. The blade count is set at order, a polished finish replaces the frosted one on request, and the colour is dropped for a white version. The spread is drawn to suit the table it is going on, and the teal at the centre can be deepened or taken almost out. Each blade is faced separately where it passes over its neighbour, and it leaves in one crate, wider than it is deep, from which it is lifted out flat and set down in one movement. Our main studios are in the UK (Birmingham) and Dubai, with additional global workshops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBlades curling round one another is \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/organic-sculptures\"\u003eorganic sculpture\u003c\/a\u003e; the frosted aqua is \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/resin-sculptures\"\u003eresin sculpture\u003c\/a\u003e; and a piece with no back is \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/indoor-sculptures\"\u003eindoor sculpture\u003c\/a\u003e that can be walked round.\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\u003e61.4cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e88.5cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDepth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e91cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFrosted 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":54029415154011,"sku":"L320","price":5698.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0869\/3383\/2027\/files\/L320.jpg?v=1791906819","url":"https:\/\/giant-sculptures.com\/products\/frosted-aqua-curling-blades-resin-sculpture-91cm","provider":"Giant Sculptures","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
