{"product_id":"pale-blue-ribbed-wave-crescent-resin-sculpture-51cm","title":"Pale Blue Ribbed Wave Crescent Resin Sculpture - 51cm","description":"\u003ch3\u003eDescription\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA ribbed crescent of pale aqua resin, open at one side like a C. Its upper arm sweeps over and draws out to a fine tail, struck in close cuts almost to its point; its lower arm is cast thick and runs out to a squared end, its inner face left smooth and flat, so a clear, polished channel runs beneath the opening. The aqua is deepest at the foot and through the lower arm and clears almost to colourless along the tail. Black marble is included beneath the casting.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eA Pale Body Needs One Plain Face\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA pale body returns less contrast between a struck crest and its trough, so the ribbing carries less of the form than it would in a deep blue, and something else has to. Here that is the lower arm. It is cast thick and polished flat along its inside, so one clear surface runs beneath the opening and gives the piece the solid foot a stronger tint would otherwise have provided. Everything else is struck, the cuts running along the upper arm almost to the point of the tail, which keeps the whole curve reading as worked.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt 51cm it suits a shelf or a console and does better against a dark surface than a pale one, which a colour this light simply disappears into. Side light is what the cutting is made for, and a downlight flattens the whole face. Standing it with the opening turned into the room shows the smooth lower arm from the usual viewing angle. Everything on this one is struck except the inside of the lower arm, and that one plain face is what keeps the ribbing from coming off as decoration laid over a shape.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eThe Aqua, the Smooth Arm, and Delivery\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eOrder a standard piece and it takes 3–4 weeks; order it bespoke and it takes 5–6. The aqua is deepened, the lower arm is cast thicker or finer, and the ribbing is stopped short of the tail. Height is open, and the ribbing is spaced to the size rather than held at one pitch. A stronger blue makes the cutting carry far more of the form and the smooth arm correspondingly less. The smooth inner face of the lower arm can also be frosted instead of polished. Crescent and block are boxed together, the crescent bedded under the sweep rather than against the tail, and it is carried by the block alone, never by the tail. Our main studios are in the UK (Birmingham) and Dubai, with additional global workshops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA pale aqua crescent, struck all over but for the smooth inside of its lower arm, sits beside the pieces in 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\u003e45cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e45.7cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDepth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e10cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBase\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e25 x 20 x 6cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCast Pale Blue 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":54077223698779,"sku":"H339","price":2361.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0869\/3383\/2027\/files\/H339.jpg?v=1791983154","url":"https:\/\/giant-sculptures.com\/products\/pale-blue-ribbed-wave-crescent-resin-sculpture-51cm","provider":"Giant Sculptures","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
