{"product_id":"green-faceted-open-cradle-resin-sculpture-53cm","title":"Green Faceted Open Cradle Resin Sculpture - 53cm","description":"\u003ch3\u003eDescription\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAn open cradle of green resin whose two ends rise into uprights of quite different kinds. At one end clear layers stand one behind another, cut off square on a slant; at the other the wall folds up into a sharp point of crisp facets. Between them the rim runs in one smooth curve. Green is banked heavily at the foot and clears through the wall to colourless at the rim. Nothing is supplied under it; the cradle was drawn to stand on the run of its own foot.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eA Vessel That Has Given Up Being Useful\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA cradle that rises into an upright at each end is a vessel that has given up being useful, and everything about the wall is drawn for looking rather than holding. The wall is deepest at the foot and thins all the way to the rim, which is the opposite of how a bowl meant for use would be made and the reason the green pools where it does. A wall this deep holds its own colour graduation, which is why the green looks poured rather than painted on. Polished inside and out, with bubbles left where the pour put them through the thickest part.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA wide sideboard or a console table, at a height where the hollow is open to anybody standing. A pale wall behind holds the two uprights; a dark one swallows them. Light falling into the hollow is what brings the green up, and from the side the piece goes flat. It reads as a solid green mass from away, and the fact that it is open is a near discovery.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eShaping the Ends, and How It Travels\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eProduction takes approximately 3–4 weeks for a standard piece, or 5–6 weeks for a bespoke commission. The uprights can be set further apart, the green carried up the wall, and the bubbles left out. Move the uprights apart and the wall between them is redrawn, so the opening keeps its proportion to the foot. The layered end can be built with more layers or fewer, and the folded point cut with sharper or softer facets. One crate, one piece, and nothing to do on arrival. Two people should lift it, and only by the foot: the weight is all there, and neither upright will take a hand. Our main studios are in the UK (Birmingham) and Dubai, with additional global workshops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAn open green cradle, layered at one end and folded to a faceted point at the other, sits with our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/organic-sculptures\"\u003eorganic sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e, our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/resin-sculptures\"\u003eresin sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e and 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\u003e40cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e52.7cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDepth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e32.7cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCast Green Resin\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Giant Sculptures","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54101063467355,"sku":"H161","price":3103.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0869\/3383\/2027\/files\/H161.jpg?v=1791934091","url":"https:\/\/giant-sculptures.com\/products\/green-faceted-open-cradle-resin-sculpture-53cm","provider":"Giant Sculptures","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
