{"product_id":"teal-pierced-scholars-rock-resin-sculpture-47cm","title":"Teal Pierced Scholar's Rock Resin Sculpture - 47cm","description":"\u003ch3\u003eDescription\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA Taihu-style scholar's rock cast in a clear teal, pierced right through in several places so the upright form is as much opening as material. The teal runs from a strong sea colour at the foot to a paler, frosted tone through the upper loops, and each opening has its own size and outline. Its depth is slight, and a marble base comes with it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSea Teal Through a Pierced Taihu Form\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA Taihu stone is read through its holes, and in a coloured casting the holes are where the colour changes most. Every opening has a rim, and on a teal body the rim gathers the deepest tone, so each hole is outlined in a darker line while the faces between them stay pale. The form is worked by hand and polished through every opening, and the teal is part of the resin rather than a coat on it, which keeps the colour even at the edges where a surface finish would wear first.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA desk, a study shelf or a console takes it at 47cm, close enough to a chair for the openings to be looked into. Side light lifts the teal at the rims of the openings, and a plain pale wall behind lets the holes read clearly. Keep the surface round the base clear so the outline is not crowded.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTeal, a Paler Wash, and Delivery\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eProduction takes approximately 3–4 weeks for a standard piece, or 5–6 weeks for a bespoke commission. The teal can be deepened toward petrol or softened to an aqua wash, and the frosted tone in the upper loops can be carried further down or left out. The base can be cut in another stone or colour, or to another shape, on request. It travels in a foam shell shaped to the rock, the marble boxed beside it, and two hands go round the body to lift it, never a finger through an opening. Our main studios are in the UK (Birmingham) and Dubai, with additional global workshops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA teal Taihu rock pierced right through belongs with our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/abstract-sculptures\"\u003eabstract sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e; holes rimmed in a deeper sea colour place it among our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/organic-sculptures\"\u003eorganic sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e, and a frosted teal casting on marble suits our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/resin-sculptures\"\u003eresin 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\u003e41cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e23cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDepth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e8cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBase\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e20 x 15 x 6cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTeal Cast Resin with Marble Base\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Giant Sculptures","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54228211958107,"sku":"T003-2","price":1890.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0869\/3383\/2027\/files\/T003__2.jpg?v=1790856301","url":"https:\/\/giant-sculptures.com\/products\/teal-pierced-scholars-rock-resin-sculpture-47cm","provider":"Giant Sculptures","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
