{"product_id":"purple-graded-upturned-u-acrylic-side-table-50cm","title":"Purple Graded Upturned U Acrylic Side Table - 50cm","description":"\u003ch3\u003eDescription\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis side table is an upturned U: one top plate and two side panels, formed in one run, so nothing on it is jointed, and every corner drawn to a wide radius rather than a fold. The purple is strongest along the top and pales as it comes down each side, so the table appears to be standing in light.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eOne Plate, Two Sides, No Joint At All\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eTwo corners in one sheet is harder than one, because the second bend has to be made in material that has already been worked and the first corner has to survive it. Both are formed to a wide radius, which keeps the colour even round the turn - a tight bend lengthens the path light takes through the corner and would show as a dark band exactly where the eye goes. The two sides then have to finish at the same height with no adjustment available afterwards, since there is no foot to pack. The faces are polished once the bends are made, since that is the one way to remove what forming leaves.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA U-form has no legs to catch a foot on and nothing under the top, so it slides in tight: beside a bath, at a bedside, against the arm of a sofa. At 50cm the top sits above the seat of most chairs. The colour is at its strongest along the top, which is the face you look down on, so this is a table read from above rather than from across a room. Over a pale floor the purple throws a soft wash down between the two sides.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eRadius, Colour Route and a Single-Piece Delivery\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eSet aside 3–4 weeks for a standard piece and 5–6 weeks for a bespoke commission. The corner radius can be opened or tightened, which changes both the profile and the depth of colour at the turn. The grade can be reversed to put the purple at the floor, and other colour pairs come from the same run. Height and plan are both cut to order, and the sheet gauge can be increased where the table is to carry more than a lamp. It arrives as one formed piece with nothing to assemble, and is an easy one-person carry. It travels sleeved with both corners boxed, a formed radius being the part that marks. Our main studios are in the UK (Birmingham) and Dubai, with additional global workshops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA purple strongest along the top plate belongs with our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/acrylic-sculptures\"\u003eacrylic sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e; two corners formed to one wide radius lead to our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/functional-sculpture-art-furniture\"\u003eart furniture\u003c\/a\u003e, and a U-form that slides in close to a chair 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\u003e50cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e45cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDepth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e40cm\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":54016239370587,"sku":"Y157","price":2024.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0869\/3383\/2027\/files\/Y157.jpg?v=1790888937","url":"https:\/\/giant-sculptures.com\/products\/purple-graded-upturned-u-acrylic-side-table-50cm","provider":"Giant Sculptures","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
