{"product_id":"green-double-scoop-cut-sphere-resin-sculpture-51cm","title":"Green Double Scoop Cut Sphere Resin Sculpture - 51cm","description":"\u003ch3\u003eDescription\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA ball of deep translucent green, opened into two scoops that turn so that each one looks into the other. The outer surface is left as an unbroken curve and the cut faces are polished, so nothing of the opening shows until you are square to it. A block of black marble carries it and is part of the piece.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eOutside a Ball, Inside Two Bowls\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe cut has to take a great deal of material out of the middle and leave the outside untouched, which sounds like two separate jobs and is in fact one. Every point on the curve belongs to both: a scoop driven too deep breaks through the skin, and one kept too shallow leaves a thick dead wall that the light cannot get through. So the wall between the two scoops is drawn to a constant thickness right across the turn, which is what makes the green read at the same strength wherever you look into it. That single continuous wall is also the reason the piece can be cast at all: an even section sets evenly, and a form with a thick core and a thin skin would craze along the join.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt reads from every side and from above, which rules out a niche or anywhere pushed back against a wall. At 51cm it suits a central table, an island or a console that can be reached from either end, with the surface around it kept clear. Overhead light reaches into each scoop and lets the green show its depth; light from one side fills one and leaves the other dark, which is worth trying before settling on either.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eThe Cut, the Tint, and Delivery\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eReckon on 3–4 weeks for a standard piece, or 5–6 weeks for a bespoke one. The scoops are cut deeper or brought shallower, the green is taken toward blue or lifted to a pale mint, and the marble is offered at another size. Other diameters can be cast to order, and a steel disc is made in place of the stone. A frosted finish is also made and closes the piece up, since seeing into one scoop through the other is what it is for. It is crated on its outer curve with the stone laid flat beneath, and two pairs of hands move it. Our main studios are in the UK (Birmingham) and Dubai, with additional global workshops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA green ball hollowed into two facing scoops belongs with our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/organic-sculptures\"\u003eorganic sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e; green held at one strength through the wall leads to our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/resin-sculptures\"\u003eresin sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e, and a green ball for a central table joins 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\u003e45cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e45cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDepth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e45cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBase\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e25 x 25 x 6cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCast Green Resin on Black Marble\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Giant Sculptures","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54069249704283,"sku":"X230","price":2430.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0869\/3383\/2027\/files\/X230.jpg?v=1790957290","url":"https:\/\/giant-sculptures.com\/products\/green-double-scoop-cut-sphere-resin-sculpture-51cm","provider":"Giant Sculptures","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
