{"product_id":"white-torn-rim-cupped-form-resin-sculpture-125cm","title":"White Torn Rim Cupped Form Resin Sculpture - 125cm","description":"\u003ch3\u003eDescription\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA cupped form whose two sides rise away from a central keel like a pair of wings, the rim between them torn into a slow wave that runs down both flanks. The white is matt and streaked with fine grey lines that rise from the keel and fan out towards the rim. A tall black marble plinth is included and is what puts the cup at chest height; it arrives as a separate piece.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eA Cup Carried Just Below the Eye\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003ePutting a cupped form on a column of this height changes what it has to be. Carried at chest level, a little below the eye, the cup is seen mostly from outside, with only a narrow view in over the lowest part of the rim, so a rim torn at the lip alone would barely register. The tear is therefore carried well down both flanks rather than kept at the top, so the profile is broken where it is seen against the room. The fine grey lines in the white do the same work on the outer wall, climbing from the keel and spreading as they go, so the eye is drawn up the outside of the cup to the tear.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFloor work, and one side of it has to be walked up to. The plinth is square at the foot and will not sit true on a rug or across a threshold. At this height the cup is read against the wall behind rather than against the floor, so an unpapered wall serves it best. At 125cm the cup sits at chest height, a little below the eye, so the keel and the streaked outer wall face the room and only the dip in the rim gives a view inside.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eThe Plinth, the Rim, and Delivery\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eOur workshops take 3–4 weeks over a standard piece and 5–6 over a bespoke commission. The rim is torn more deeply or hardly at all, a warm tint is run into the white, and the plinth is cut in other stones. The plinth is cut to the room, and the form standing on it is cast at other spans. The plinth can be cut down for a room with a low ceiling, bringing the cup nearer waist height, and the proportions still work there. A white stone plinth is made where the black is too heavy for the room. Cup and plinth travel in two crates, the plinth carried upright by two people and the cup held under its keel rather than by the torn rim. Our main studios are in the UK (Birmingham) and Dubai, with additional global workshops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRaised to chest height on black marble, a streaked white cup with a torn rim joins 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\u003e35cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e50cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDepth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e50cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBase\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e40 x 40 x 90cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCast White Resin on Black Marble\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Giant Sculptures","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54077224583515,"sku":"H282","price":2563.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0869\/3383\/2027\/files\/H282.jpg?v=1791981901","url":"https:\/\/giant-sculptures.com\/products\/white-torn-rim-cupped-form-resin-sculpture-125cm","provider":"Giant Sculptures","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
