{"product_id":"smoked-pleated-shell-cast-resin-dining-chair-87cm","title":"Smoked Pleated Shell Cast Resin Dining Chair - 87cm","description":"\u003ch3\u003eDescription\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe shell is one piece: a rounded back that curves forward into a dished seat, with no join visible between them. Along its whole top edge the material gathers into a row of soft pleats, each one a shallow fold that runs a short way down the back before dying out. The resin is smoked, so the shell is a warm brown where you look through the greatest depth of it at the pleats and much paler across the open span of the back. Four black timber legs are set into the underside, square in section and splayed slightly, and they are the only opaque part of the chair.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eA Row of Pleats Along the Shell Edge\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe pleats are what make this chair worth looking at twice. They sit only on the top edge of the shell, each a shallow fold that runs a little way down the back and fades, and they are evenly pitched along the whole length with no crowding at either end. Because they present more material to look through than the flat back does, they hold a deeper brown, so the top edge reads as a dark band and the middle of the back as pale smoke. The shell has no join between back and seat and no seam anywhere on its outer face. The four timber legs are the counterweight: opaque, black, square in section, and set at a slight splay, so the chair has one soft element and one hard one and nothing in between.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt 87cm high it will run under a dining table, and the pleated top edge stands proud of the table line so a set of them reads as a row from across a room. The smoked shell needs a light background: against a dark wall it goes to brown and the pleats stop separating. The black legs tie it to a dark floor or to timber furniture and look stark against pale carpet. For indoor use.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eThe Shell, the Legs, and the Wait\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eReckon on 3–4 weeks for a standard piece, or 5–6 weeks for a bespoke one. There are three open questions. The shell is offered in other tints, the legs are available in a paler timber or in black metal, and the pleat pitch along the top edge can be opened up or tightened. The seat height and the overall width are named by you. Order more than one together and the pitch of the pleats along the rim is matched across them. Crated with the pleated top edge protected, it is a two-person lift. Our main studios are in the UK (Birmingham) and Dubai, with additional global workshops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSoft pleats along a smoked shell suit our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/contemporary-modern-sculptures\"\u003econtemporary and modern sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e; as seating it joins our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/functional-sculpture-art-furniture\"\u003eart furniture\u003c\/a\u003e, and on black timber legs it belongs among 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\u003e87cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e53cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDepth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e57cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTinted Cast Resin with Solid Wood Legs\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Giant Sculptures","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53971458916699,"sku":"J338","price":3375.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0869\/3383\/2027\/files\/J338.jpg?v=1791387273","url":"https:\/\/giant-sculptures.com\/products\/smoked-pleated-shell-cast-resin-dining-chair-87cm","provider":"Giant Sculptures","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
