Smoke grey is swirled through white the whole way up, darkest where the twist doubles on itself. A black marble plinth is supplied beneath it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eEverything Through One Waist\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA column pinched at the waist is a claim about what the material will bear, and it is made in the one place the eye goes first. One fan is broader than the other and the two sit at different angles, so the piece has a front without ever being symmetrical, and a few degrees of turn changes which of them you meet first. A body pinched to a waist and opened at both ends has to carry everything through its narrowest section, and the casting is run heaviest exactly there. Polished all over, so the swirl is read in the depth of the body and not on its surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA hall or an entrance, standing clear of furniture on all sides. A plain wall. The white in it will pick up any colour behind it and hold it. A single high source runs down the twist and stops at the waist, which is where the piece is most interesting. The pinch is what registers from across a room, and the fans at each end resolve as you get nearer.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eAnother Half Turn, and Delivery\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eSet aside 3–4 weeks for a standard piece and 5–6 weeks for a bespoke commission. The twist is given another half turn, the grey is deepened toward black, and a plinth of less height is cut for it. Add a half turn and the height comes down with it, because the body is one length however tightly it is wound. Plinth and casting travel apart and meet on site, with the plinth levelled before anything is set on it. Two people, and the waist is the one place it must not be carried by. Our main studios are in the UK (Birmingham) and Dubai, with additional global workshops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA column pinched at the waist and fanned at both ends belongs to our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/organic-sculptures\"\u003eorganic sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e; the grey and white swirled casting joins our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/resin-sculptures\"\u003eresin sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e, and a hall entrance is its natural home among 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\u003e125cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e44cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDepth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e28cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBase\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e40 x 29 x 55cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCast Resin Swirled Grey and White on Natural Marble\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Giant Sculptures","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54102708224347,"sku":"Z455","price":4657.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0869\/3383\/2027\/files\/Z455.jpg?v=1790774152","url":"https:\/\/giant-sculptures.com\/products\/grey-swirled-twisting-column-resin-sculpture-180cm","provider":"Giant Sculptures","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
