The top is thick and colourless to faintly grey, its upper face worked into irregular ripples that run across the whole diameter, and its edge left chipped and uneven rather than ground true. Underneath it stands a drum base in a dark gunmetal grey, closely fluted all round in fine vertical ribs, set in from the rim so the top overhangs it by several centimetres on every side.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eA Chipped Edge Left Where the Ripples End\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe two surfaces are set against each other deliberately. The top's face is rippled right across, an irregular swell that catches light in bands and never resolves into a pattern, and the edge is left chipped rather than ground true, so the whole disc reads as a broken sheet of ice. Under it the drum is the opposite: matte, dark, and fluted in fine vertical ribs so regular that they read as a machined surface. The drum is set in from the rim, so the top overhangs and throws a shadow onto the flutes, and that shadow moves round the drum as the light changes. Every top ripples differently.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt sits low and reads as a coffee table for a seating group. The rippled top is meant to be looked into rather than across, so a position where people sit above it serves it better than one seen from standing. Anything placed on it will sit unevenly on the ripples unless it has a broad flat base. The drum is set in from the rim, so seating can come closer than the diameter suggests. Indoors only.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eThe Ripple Depth, the Edge, and the Drum Beneath\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eFigure the difference between standard and bespoke at 3–4 weeks against 5–6. The metal drum is what fills the time. Three decisions sit with you. The ripple depth is first, from this pronounced swell to a nearly flat face with only a suggestion of movement. The edge is second: chipped as here, or ground true, which turns the top from a broken sheet into a disc. And the drum, which can be this fluted gunmetal, a plain smooth cylinder, or a narrower column that gives more foot room. Diameter and height are settled at order. A pair made together will match; ordered apart they will not. It arrives in one crate and one person can manage it. Our main studios are in the UK (Birmingham) and Dubai, with additional global workshops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRippled resin over a ribbed metal drum brings this low table into our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/functional-sculpture-art-furniture\"\u003eart furniture\u003c\/a\u003e; the fluted base sits with our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/metal-sculptures\"\u003emetal sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e, and the ice-like top with our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/organic-sculptures\"\u003eorganic 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\u003e32cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDiameter\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e80cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCast Resin with Fluted Metal 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":53970284118363,"sku":"J256","price":4587.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0869\/3383\/2027\/files\/J256.jpg?v=1791389133","url":"https:\/\/giant-sculptures.com\/products\/rippled-clear-top-fluted-metal-drum-table-80cm","provider":"Giant Sculptures","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
