The edge is not cut straight: it wanders in and out like the edge of a sheet of ice, and it stays that way along both long sides. Two black plinths carry it, each cast as a rough irregular mass with the broken faces and sharp arrises of split rock. A third piece of the same black form, no bigger than a fist, stands on the slab itself, about a third of the way along, so the surface appears broken from beneath.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWater Held Flat on Two Rocks\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eTwo very different surfaces are asked to sit together here, and the contrast is the piece. The slab is clear and its ripples are shallow and continuous, running in bands across the full length without a repeat that the eye can pick up. Its edge is the unusual decision: it is left wandering and irregular along both long sides, thin at the extremities and never square, so the slab reads as a sheet of ice rather than as a worked top. The plinths are the opposite in every way - opaque, matt black, and broken into flat faces with sharp arrises, the geometry of split stone. The third small rock standing on the slab is what ties them: it puts the black form above the clear surface as well as below it, and the water reads as broken through.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is a standing-height console or a serving table, not a dining table, and it needs a clear run of wall along its whole length. Both plinths must land on level floor. A hall or a long room suits the rippled top, which wants to be seen down the length of the slab rather than across it. It is very heavy and takes four people, and the slab and plinths arrive separately. Keep it indoors.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eThe Slab, the Plinths, and Delivery\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eOrdinarily a standard piece needs 3–4 weeks and a bespoke commission 5–6. Three aspects can be specified. The length is quoted to whatever you need, the slab is offered tinted as well as clear, and the plinths can be finished in a grey or a warm stone tone instead of black. Whether the small rock stands on the slab is also your choice. Overall length and top thickness are quoted to your own figures. Order more than one together and the line the slab edge takes is matched across them. Crated with the thin irregular slab edge and the rock on top of it protected, it is a four-person lift. Our main studios are in the UK (Birmingham) and Dubai, with additional global workshops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWater held flat on black rock forms brings this console into our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/functional-sculpture-art-furniture\"\u003eart furniture\u003c\/a\u003e; the pairing of ice and stone suits our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/contemporary-modern-sculptures\"\u003econtemporary and modern sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e, and a long hall or dining room our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/indoor-sculptures\"\u003eindoor sculptures\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\u003e90cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e240cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDepth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e88cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCast Resin Slab on Cast Stone-Form Plinths\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Giant Sculptures","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53971994706267,"sku":"J360","price":14993.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0869\/3383\/2027\/files\/J360.jpg?v=1791391717","url":"https:\/\/giant-sculptures.com\/products\/rippled-clear-slab-and-black-rock-resin-console-240cm","provider":"Giant Sculptures","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
