{"product_id":"pale-teal-and-red-tipped-cradle-resin-sculpture-36cm","title":"Pale Teal \u0026 Red Tipped Cradle Resin Sculpture - 36cm","description":"\u003ch3\u003eDescription\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA cradle that sweeps up from a low belly to two raised ends, each curling inward at its tip, and the two ends are treated differently: one runs to a near-black and the other to a deep brick red. The body between them is a pale teal, transparent enough that the far side of the sweep is visible through the near one. There is no stand in the price, and the cradle rests along the low point of its own sweep.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eOne Black End and One Red\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eTreating the two ends of a near-symmetric form differently is a way of giving it a front without changing its shape. The two horns differ only a little, one hooking over at its lip and the other broader, so what really tells them apart is colour, and two different colours do it far more firmly than two depths of one. Black and red are chosen because they sit on opposite sides of the teal body: the black reads as the teal taken to its limit and the red as something else entirely. The pale body between is what makes both legible. In a deeper tint the black end would close up and the whole gradient would happen in the last few centimetres.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA desk or a shelf takes it, and at this size it is handled as much as looked at, which is the point of it. Set it with a source behind rather than in front, so the body stays clear and the two ends stay dense. A pale surface underneath carries the teal further than a dark one. One black tip and one red means the two ends can never be confused, and the cradle has a direction that a single tint would not give it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTips, Colourways and Delivery\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eTime separates the two: a bespoke commission takes 5–6 weeks, a standard piece 3–4. The black tip is exchanged for a second red one, and the teal is deepened through the belly. It is repeated at other sizes, and the two coloured tips are drawn to the proportion rather than a fixed length. The body can also be tinted in another colour altogether, such as green, amber or a saturated turquoise, with tips chosen to suit it. It goes into one box packed beneath the belly, and it should be lifted out by the body rather than by either tip. Our main studios are in the UK (Birmingham) and Dubai, with additional global workshops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA cradle with two coloured ends is \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/organic-sculptures\"\u003eorganic sculpture\u003c\/a\u003e; the teal runs through \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/resin-sculptures\"\u003eresin sculpture\u003c\/a\u003e; and a piece handled as much as looked at is \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/indoor-sculptures\"\u003eindoor sculpture\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\u003e29cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e36cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDepth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e30cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCast Teal Resin\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Giant Sculptures","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54077560586587,"sku":"H038","price":2097.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0869\/3383\/2027\/files\/H038.jpg?v=1791930061","url":"https:\/\/giant-sculptures.com\/products\/pale-teal-and-red-tipped-cradle-resin-sculpture-36cm","provider":"Giant Sculptures","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
