{"product_id":"turquoise-hewn-faceted-mass-resin-sculpture-70cm","title":"Turquoise Hewn Faceted Mass Resin Sculpture - 70cm","description":"\u003ch3\u003eDescription\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA solid mass of turquoise resin worked into irregular faces of different sizes and left flat beneath, where it rests. Over most of it the faces run into one another in soft, glossy ridges and shallow dimples, like ice worn smooth, and at one end they meet in crisp edges as cut facets. Turquoise is deepest at the core and clears at every edge, so the faces read paler than the mass. Nothing is supplied under it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCut Faces on a Solid Body\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA solid mass is the one form in this material where the inside matters more than the outside, because everything the eye does happens several centimetres in. The faces are cut at angles that do not repeat, so each one sends light a different way into the body, and the piece never settles into a pattern from any single position. Most of the edges between the faces are softened into rounded ridges, and only at one end do they meet crisply, so the mass reads as worn ice at one end and as cut stone at the other. The cut faces are polished, so what looks like broken stone is smooth to the hand.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA sideboard or a deep shelf suits it, set near enough to the eye that the cut faces can be looked into. A pale wall lets the turquoise show; a dark one turns the whole mass to a silhouette. Light into the cut faces scatters and comes back paler, so the core reads brighter than the surface around it. The turquoise carries; the cut faces are what you come over to look at.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFewer Faces, and Getting It In\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eCount on the difference between standard and bespoke: 3–4 weeks or 5–6. The faces are cut broader or fewer, the turquoise is taken toward green, and the underside is left unpolished. Cut broader faces and fewer of them, and the mass is reshaped around what is left. A fitted crate holds it in one piece, and it is lifted out with both hands beneath its flat underside, never by a ridge or an edge. The softened ridges can also be cut crisp all over, or the crisp end worn down to match the rest. Our main studios are in the UK (Birmingham) and Dubai, with additional global workshops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTurquoise resin hewn into glossy ridges and crisp facets connects this mass to our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/organic-sculptures\"\u003eorganic sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e, our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/resin-sculptures\"\u003eresin sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e and 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\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e26cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e70cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDepth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e37.3cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCast Turquoise Resin\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Giant Sculptures","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54099919438171,"sku":"H467","price":3644.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0869\/3383\/2027\/files\/H467.jpg?v=1792007835","url":"https:\/\/giant-sculptures.com\/products\/turquoise-hewn-faceted-mass-resin-sculpture-70cm","provider":"Giant Sculptures","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
