{"product_id":"green-crystalline-wrap-illuminated-reception-desk-180cm","title":"Green Crystalline Wrap Illuminated Reception Desk - 180cm","description":"\u003ch3\u003eDescription\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis reception desk stands at counter height, its two ends and its whole front wrapped in green resin worked into a field of crystalline facets. The wrap is lit, so the front reads as a block of green light with each facet's edge drawn bright, and it stops short of the top, which is a solid panel. Behind it the desk is a working carcase.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eA Crystalline Green Wrap Around a Working Carcase\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe facets are irregular rather than repeated, closer to fractured ice than to a cut pattern, and they run round the two ends as well as the front so the piece has no plain side. Lit, the whole wrap glows and no fitting shows anywhere on it; unlit, the same faces read as broken green glass. Every facet is finished by hand, so the pattern differs from one desk to the next. The carcase behind is built of panel board, and polished stainless steel finishes each end at floor level.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is worked from behind at standing and approached from the front, which suits a hotel or office reception, a showroom welcome desk or a club bar. It takes two people side by side. It needs a dark or mid-toned wall behind it for the lit wrap to register, and it is most effective where the room lighting can be brought down. Indoor use only.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eDrawers, Shelves \u0026amp; the Knee Space Behind\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eWork on a bespoke commission runs to 5–6 weeks, on a standard piece to 3–4. The back of this desk is the half a receptionist actually uses, so it is worth setting out. Behind the green wrap sits a panel-board carcase with two drawers to each side and open bays above, between and below them, and down the middle a tall knee space under a single shelf bay, wide enough for a chair to pull in. The drawers run on the same side as the operator, not the visitor, and the bays take a printer, a card machine or files. Drawer count and bay heights are specified at order, and the carcase is offered in this pale timber or in a dark stain. A mains connection is required at one end and we supply drawings showing the cable entry and the fixing centres in time for first fix; the circuit is specified as fixed warm, fixed cool or dimmable at order, because it is not a change that can be made later. The desk travels in one crate on its plinths and is unpacked front face out, since the facet arrises are the first thing to meet a doorframe. Our main studios are in the UK (Birmingham) and Dubai, with additional global workshops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOur \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/functional-sculpture-art-furniture\"\u003eart furniture\u003c\/a\u003e takes in working pieces such as this desk; its plinths link it to our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/metal-sculptures\"\u003emetal sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e, and their polished finish to our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/stainless-steel-sculptures\"\u003estainless steel 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\u003e100cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e180cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDepth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e70cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTinted Resin, Stainless Steel, Panel Carcase and Integral Lighting\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Giant Sculptures","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53958314393947,"sku":"J243","price":32403.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0869\/3383\/2027\/files\/J243.jpg?v=1791375698","url":"https:\/\/giant-sculptures.com\/products\/green-crystalline-wrap-illuminated-reception-desk-180cm","provider":"Giant Sculptures","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
