A round upholstered pad in teal sits on top, and its deeper teal underside drops down into the drum, so the colour shows through the openings as well as above them.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eA Clear Wall Torn Open All Round\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery torn edge on the wall is shaped by hand for the mould, so the openings follow the maker's hand rather than a repeating pattern and vary in size and outline all round the drum. Casting round so many voids of different sizes sets the schedule, because the resin must keep a steady thickness through the narrow bridges between them, and every opening has to be polished inside as well as on the outer face. The pad is made to the drum and dropped in after the body is finished.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt 55cm this is above ordinary stool height, which puts it at a console, a dressing table or the end of a kitchen island rather than under a dining table. It works as occasional seating in a bedroom or a dressing room, and it can be left as a stand for a bowl or a plant where the openings are worth seeing through.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eThe Pad, the Openings, and Getting It Through a Door\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn the workshop a standard piece takes 3–4 weeks and a bespoke commission 5–6. Most of it is the pierced wall. Three choices are open. The wall can be pierced more sparingly or more densely, the pad can take a velvet or a fabric of your own, and the drum can carry a tint that echoes the colour of the pad. Both the seat diameter and the overall height are yours to set. Ask for several together if the pattern of openings needs to agree between them. The crate is built around the pierced wall and the pad edge, and two people should carry it. Our main studios are in the UK (Birmingham) and Dubai, with additional global workshops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTeal velvet over a torn clear drum places this stool among our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/functional-sculpture-art-furniture\"\u003eart furniture\u003c\/a\u003e; its pierced wall speaks the language of our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/contemporary-modern-sculptures\"\u003econtemporary and modern sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e, and it is gathered too with 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\u003e55cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDiameter\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e42cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCast Resin with an Upholstered Pad\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Giant Sculptures","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53983185895771,"sku":"J494","price":3915.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0869\/3383\/2027\/files\/J494.jpg?v=1791389879","url":"https:\/\/giant-sculptures.com\/products\/teal-seat-pierced-clear-cast-resin-stool-55cm","provider":"Giant Sculptures","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
