The top is a thick slab filled with pale, fine angular fragments, and a narrow brass band runs round the foot of its rim, leaving the crystal edge open above it. Below, a brass drum carries the top, reeded all round in close, narrow flutes, with a few short vertical slits at mid-height.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eAn Open Crystal Edge Above a Reeded Brass Drum\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eTwo things shape this table. The first is the brass band at the foot of the rim: a narrow line of metal running all the way round the oval, with the crystal left open above it, so the slab reads as a block of ice set on a thin gold rail rather than as a tray. The fragments are pale and fine and fill the whole thickness, which keeps the top bright when it is looked down into. The second is the drum, made of close brass reeds that each hold a highlight, with a scatter of short slits around its middle, so it looks like a gathered sheaf of rods rather than a solid can. Because the plan is an oval rather than a circle, the overhang is generous at the ends and slight at the sides, which gives the table a direction it would not otherwise have.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is a coffee table for a seating group arranged along a line rather than in a ring, since the oval has ends and wants to point down the room. The crystal top is level and takes anything. It reads best where a light can sit above it, which puts the field of fragments at its brightest and throws the drum's slot pattern onto the floor. Against a dark rug the brass is the strongest thing in the room; against a pale one the crystal takes over. Indoors only.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eThe Rim Band, the Slots, and the Plan\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eReckon on 3–4 weeks for a standard piece, or 5–6 weeks for a bespoke one. The rim band is the first choice, in brass as here, in a blackened steel that makes the crystal read colder, or left off altogether for a bare edge. The slots in the drum come second: at these intervals, closer for a finer rhythm, or omitted for a plain fluted drum. The third is the plan, from this oval through to a circle or a rounded rectangle, which changes how the table sits in a room more than any surface decision does. Fragment scale is set with the top. Plan size and drum height are quoted together. Slab and drum travel separately and are joined on site with the fixings supplied. Our main studios are in the UK (Birmingham) and Dubai, with additional global workshops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe pale crystal slab belongs to our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/resin-sculptures\"\u003eresin sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e, while the reeded brass drum is closer to our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/metal-sculptures\"\u003emetal sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e; as an oval low table for a long seating group, it also appears in our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/functional-sculpture-art-furniture\"\u003eart furniture\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\u003e35cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e100cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDepth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e75cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCast Resin with Slotted Brass 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":53966705230171,"sku":"J174","price":5938.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0869\/3383\/2027\/files\/J174.jpg?v=1791385897","url":"https:\/\/giant-sculptures.com\/products\/pale-crystal-brass-banded-oval-low-table-100cm","provider":"Giant Sculptures","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
