Four brass studs are set into the front face, two on each side of the arch. Over the box sits a solid black timber top, overhanging on every side so its edge shows as a dark line right round. It is deeper than a lamp table needs to be.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eAn Arch Cut Through the Front of a Frosted Box\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eFrosted acrylic and dark timber are an awkward pair to join, because one moves with the weather and the other does not. The top is not glued down but held on fixings that allow the timber to move across its width, which is why the overhang is generous on all four sides: a top fitted flush would show that movement at a corner sooner or later. The arch is cut through the front panel and its edge is worked back to a polish, so the frost stops at the opening and the cut face reads bright against it. The brass studs are set from the front into blind holes rather than passed through the panel, so nothing shows inside the box. The carcase corners are mitred and bonded, then reworked so the frost carries across the joint.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA frosted box reads as a solid where a clear one would disappear, so this is the acrylic table to use where the room needs something to sit still: beside a bed, at a sofa's arm, or in a hall where a clear piece would be walked into. The arch gives it a front, so it wants to face into the room. At 45cm the timber top meets most chair arms. A pale floor keeps the box reading white; on a dark floor it takes on the colour of what is under it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eStud Layout, Timber Choice and a Two-Part Delivery\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eSet aside 3–4 weeks for a standard piece and 5–6 weeks for a bespoke commission. The timber top is offered in this black stain, a natural oak, a walnut or painted, and its overhang is set at order. Stud count and layout are open - four is the balance we would choose, but two or six work and they can be brass, bronze, chrome or black. The arch can be taken up higher in the panel or drawn into a plain rectangular opening, and the acrylic is available frosted in a colour rather than white. Box and top travel separately and go together with four fixings, which one person can do with a screwdriver. Both are a one-person carry. Our main studios are in the UK (Birmingham) and Dubai, with additional global workshops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA frosted box with an arched opening belongs with our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/acrylic-sculptures\"\u003eacrylic sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e; four brass studs under a black timber top lead to our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/functional-sculpture-art-furniture\"\u003eart furniture\u003c\/a\u003e, and a side table steady enough for a busy hall joins 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\u003e45cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e56cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDepth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e55cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFrosted Acrylic with a Solid Timber Top\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Giant Sculptures","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54016470614363,"sku":"Y211","price":4050.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0869\/3383\/2027\/files\/Y211.jpg?v=1790889971","url":"https:\/\/giant-sculptures.com\/products\/white-arched-box-black-timber-top-side-table-45cm","provider":"Giant Sculptures","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
