{"product_id":"smoke-grey-arched-abstract-resin-sculpture-129cm","title":"Smoke Grey Arched Abstract Resin Sculpture - 129cm","description":"\u003ch3\u003eDescription\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAn arched upright in smoke grey cast resin. The body rises off a splayed foot, arches right over at the top and opens into a flared mouth, with a fin-like plane thrown out to one side at about half height. Smoke grey holds the foot and the standing body and thins as the arch rises, so the turn at the top is almost colourless. A low black marble slab comes with it and makes up part of the height.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat an Arch That Size Has to Do\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eOne design cast at four sizes is not one object at four sizes: the arch reaches further past the foot as it grows, and at this size that is the whole structural problem. Nothing about the profile is symmetrical and nothing repeats, so the piece has a front and two very different quarter views, and the one you turn into the room is a decision worth making on the day rather than at the door. The arch carries its whole top outside the foot, and cast resin is the only material here that would hold that shape at this size. Polished right through, so the grey is read in depth rather than off the surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA hall or a stairwell, with generous clear air above the slab. It wants a pale wall. Smoke grey against dark panelling loses the whole upper half of the piece. A single source high and to one side gives the arch its edge; flat light leaves it grey and shapeless. The arch is what carries across a hall, and the flare at the top only resolves as you approach.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eOther Colourways, and Getting It Through the Door\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eOrder a standard piece and it takes 3–4 weeks; order it bespoke and it takes 5–6. The arch is drawn further over, another colour replaces the grey, and pale marble is cut for the slab. Draw the arch further over and the foot is broadened to carry it, because everything above it is cantilevered off that splay. The same form is made in amber, in olive grey and in clear on a white slab, and each changes what the arch does. The slab goes down and is levelled, the casting is lowered onto it, and nothing fixes the two together. Two people and a clear approach. Two people, hands under the standing body and never on the flare. Our main studios are in the UK (Birmingham) and Dubai, with additional global workshops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eArched and flaring forms of this family continue through our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/organic-sculptures\"\u003eorganic sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e, in more colours among our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/resin-sculptures\"\u003eresin sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e, and at other sizes in 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 \u003ctr\u003e \u003ctd\u003eHeight\u003c\/td\u003e \u003ctd\u003e123cm\u003c\/td\u003e \u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e \u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e \u003ctd\u003e83cm\u003c\/td\u003e \u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e \u003ctd\u003eDepth\u003c\/td\u003e \u003ctd\u003e30cm\u003c\/td\u003e \u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e \u003ctd\u003eBase\u003c\/td\u003e \u003ctd\u003e30 x 30 x 6cm\u003c\/td\u003e \u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e \u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e \u003ctd\u003eCast Grey Resin on Black Marble\u003c\/td\u003e \u003c\/tr\u003e \u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Giant Sculptures","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54101658960219,"sku":"Z018","price":3915.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0869\/3383\/2027\/files\/Z018.jpg?v=1790875500","url":"https:\/\/giant-sculptures.com\/products\/smoke-grey-arched-abstract-resin-sculpture-129cm","provider":"Giant Sculptures","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
