Worked into its upper face are two kinds of relief: broad ripples running across the width, and two vortices that turn down into the mass like water leaving a drain. A small rock stands on the surface near one end. Two plinths carry it, each cast as a rough black mass with the split faces and sharp arrises of broken stone.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eA Vortex Cut Into a Frosted Slab\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eTwo kinds of relief on one slab, and they do different work. Broad ripples run across the width, shallow and continuous, and they read as surface. Two vortices turn down into the mass like water leaving a drain, and they read as depth - the eye follows them into the material rather than across it. The torn edge on both long sides keeps the slab from looking machined. Against all of that the plinths are opaque, matt black and broken into flat faces with sharp arrises, the geometry of split stone. The small rock standing on the surface near one end is what joins the two languages: it puts the black form above the frosted plane as well as beneath it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt works as a bench or a serving surface, and it needs plenty of clear floor along its length. Both plinths need level floor. The vortices read from above and the torn edge from the side, so a position people pass and look down on gets both. A plain floor is essential: pattern comes straight through the slab and the ripples lose their separation. Very heavy, arrives in parts. Indoors.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eThe Plinths, the Relief, and Delivery\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eExpect 3–4 weeks for a standard piece and 5–6 weeks where the commission is bespoke. Most of it is the vortex relief. Three things are settled at order. You name the length, the slab comes clear as well as frosted, and the plinths can be finished in a grey or a warm stone tone. Whether the small rock stands on the surface is your choice. The overall length and the top thickness are open figures. Buy them at once for the shape of the two plinths to agree, or separately and accept it will not. The crate holds the torn slab edge and the rock on top of it away from every face, and four people bring it in. Our main studios are in the UK (Birmingham) and Dubai, with additional global workshops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eVortices cut into a frosted slab on black rock forms bind this bench to our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/fiberglass-sculptures\"\u003efibreglass sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e; laid out for serving it belongs to our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/functional-sculpture-art-furniture\"\u003eart furniture\u003c\/a\u003e, and the slab's frozen whirlpools suit our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/contemporary-modern-sculptures\"\u003econtemporary and modern 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\u003e75cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e240cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDepth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e90cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCast Resin Slab on Cast Fibreglass Plinths\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Giant Sculptures","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53972615659867,"sku":"J447","price":14851.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0869\/3383\/2027\/files\/J447.jpg?v=1791393900","url":"https:\/\/giant-sculptures.com\/products\/vortex-relief-slab-and-rock-plinth-resin-bench-240cm","provider":"Giant Sculptures","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
