The iridescent grade holds a warm amber right through the antlers, the head, the neck and the chest, and only cools to a clear blue behind the shoulder. At this height it is a floor piece, meant to be met from the far side of a room.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eA Transition That Has to Work Across a Room\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eScale changes where the grade has to be right. On a table-sized animal the transition is examined close to, so what matters is that it is smooth; on this one the piece is normally seen from across a room, so what matters is where the warm mass ends. Set too far back and the animal reads as entirely amber with cold feet; too far forward and the whole front goes muddy. The point is chosen by standing the finished stag at the far end of the workshop and looking, a different test from the one a table-sized animal needs, and it is why the amber is carried as far back as the shoulder. The rack's amber is judged against the head's, so that the two agree where they meet.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA rack this wide sets the position before anything else does: it needs clear space to both sides and above, so an open floor, a stair hall or the middle of a large room, never an alcove. Check the doorways on the way in as well as the space it is going to. Cool daylight keeps both ends of the grade visible; a warm lamp collapses it into amber. Against a pale wall the animal reads whole from across the room, which is how it is meant to be met, and a dark wall loses the blue hindquarters entirely.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eRack Width, Grade and Getting It Through a Door\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt takes 3–4 weeks to make as standard, and 5–6 weeks to make bespoke. The spread of the rack and the count of its tines are both named with the order, and a hind without antlers can be cast off the same form. The grade can be reversed, held to one colour, or run from a rose into gold, from a green into blue, or in greys throughout, and a plain clear stag is offered. Standing, grazing and lying animals can be made to match at this height and below it. Any size is cut to order, and anything bought alongside it is finished at the same time. Body and rack are crated apart and seat together by hand on site; two people are wanted for the body and the rack is carried by one along its length. Our main studios are in the UK (Birmingham) and Dubai, with additional global workshops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA stag carrying a rack wider than its frame belongs with our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/deer-statues\"\u003edeer statues\u003c\/a\u003e; antlers spread past both shoulders lead to our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/animal-sculptures\"\u003eanimal sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e, and a warm grade cooling to blue joins our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/resin-sculptures\"\u003eresin 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\u003e122cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e83cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDepth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e55cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCast Resin with an Iridescent Graded Finish\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Giant Sculptures","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54018542272859,"sku":"R174","price":5197.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0869\/3383\/2027\/files\/R174.jpg?v=1791309930","url":"https:\/\/giant-sculptures.com\/products\/multi-colour-graded-wide-racked-stag-resin-sculpture-122cm","provider":"Giant Sculptures","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
