It is a looping pierced mass rather than a solid one, with two large openings, an upper ring and a smaller one at the foot, and two lesser openings between them. The colour travels as it climbs: yellow-green and teal at the crown, magenta and purple through the waist, deep blue where it meets the marble.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTwo Openings and a Colour Change at the Waist\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe form doubles back on itself. Two arms leave the base, cross at about half height and close over to make the upper ring, and the crossing, the narrowest point anywhere on it, is what gives the piece its sense of movement. The surface is polished to a full gloss, so the colours behave like enamel rather than like stone, and the boundaries between them are soft: green runs into teal over several centimetres, then a hard-edged magenta cuts across the waist, which is the one abrupt change in the piece. Colour is worked into the body rather than applied to the face, so it holds on the rim of every opening as well as on the flat. No two are swirled alike, and the waist colour in particular lands differently every time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt 57cm on its block it suits a reception desk, a sideboard or a wide shelf rather than the floor, and the marble block means it needs no mat or pad under it. It has two things worth showing: the profile, which needs a plain wall behind it, and the openings, which need something to see through them, so it does better with clear space around it than pushed into a group of objects. Turned a quarter, it becomes a different silhouette, so a spot approached from two directions suits it. Indoor use only.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSwirl Route, Block Size and the Colours Named at Order\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eMaking a standard piece takes 3–4 weeks, and making a bespoke one 5–6. The palette is what gets specified. This one runs a full spread of six colours, and it is also made in two or three, which reads much calmer and lets one colour own the waist; the sequence from crown to foot is set at order, so the deep tone can sit at the top instead. The marble block is a shallow one in black as standard; white or grey is available, and a deeper block lifts the piece on a low surface. The form is fixed: the arms and the two large openings are what this model is, and the piece is not made without the crossing. Because the colour is worked wet, a request to copy an existing piece exactly cannot be met, and the studio will say so at order rather than after. It ships with the block already fitted, boxed with the openings packed out, and one person can handle it. Our main studios are in the UK (Birmingham) and Dubai, with additional global workshops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA rock swirled from yellow-green to deep blue belongs with our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/abstract-sculptures\"\u003eabstract sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e; a looping mass pierced four times joins our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/organic-sculptures\"\u003eorganic sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e, and colour carried through its polished body puts it with our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/resin-sculptures\"\u003eresin 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\u003e51cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e26cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDepth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e15cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBase\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e20 x 15 x 6cm, Included\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eImported Clear Resin with Black Marble Base\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Giant Sculptures","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53956665803099,"sku":"T004","price":1889.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0869\/3383\/2027\/files\/T004.jpg?v=1790856311","url":"https:\/\/giant-sculptures.com\/products\/multicoloured-swirled-scholars-rock-resin-sculpture-57cm","provider":"Giant Sculptures","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
