A top plate takes whatever is displayed on it, and inside, a floor panel set just above the ground catches the palest of the pink, so the open face reads as a frame graded from dark to light.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eAlmost Black at the Top, Clear Pink at the Floor\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eRunning one grade down the full height means the sheet has to be cut in the right place and the right way up, and there is no second attempt: cut a panel from too far up the run and its top will not match its neighbour's. So the four panels are cut in sequence from one length of stock and kept in order, and the corners are the test - a grade that steps at a corner announces itself down the full height. The dark end is also the harder end to finish, because a near-black acrylic shows a polishing swirl that a pale one hides, so the top of every panel is worked longer than the rest of it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt 110cm this puts a piece above standing eye level, which suits an entrance, a landing or the corner of a gallery where one object is meant to hold attention. The dark top edge frames whatever stands on it, so a pale object reads strongly and a dark one is lost - that is worth matching before ordering. Keep the wall behind plain. The pale foot needs light reaching floor level to read at all, so avoid pushing it into an unlit corner.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eGrade Direction, Plan Size and Flat Delivery\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eTime separates the two: a bespoke commission takes 5–6 weeks, a standard piece 3–4. The grade can be reversed to put the dark end at the floor, run corner to corner rather than top to bottom, or replaced by an even tint. Other colour pairs are drawn from the same stock. Plan size and height are both cut to order, and the open front can be closed with a fifth panel for a solid column. Delivery is flat: four panels and a top, numbered as they are cut and bonded on arrival in that order, which is what keeps the grade continuous round the corners. Two people are wanted for the assembly. Our main studios are in the UK (Birmingham) and Dubai, with additional global workshops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA grade that runs dark to pale pink belongs with our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/acrylic-sculptures\"\u003eacrylic sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e; a tall box left open on one face points to our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/geometric-sculptures\"\u003egeometric sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e, and a dark-topped plinth for a reception room joins 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\u003e110cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e70cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDepth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e60cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGraded Purple Cast Acrylic\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Giant Sculptures","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54016239272283,"sku":"Y156","price":3238.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0869\/3383\/2027\/files\/Y156.jpg?v=1790888932","url":"https:\/\/giant-sculptures.com\/products\/purple-graded-open-box-acrylic-display-plinth-110cm","provider":"Giant Sculptures","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
