The listed size is 200 cm, and like most items in this catalogue, it is made to any custom diameter on request.

- 200 cm as listed, or any diameter the space requires
- Wooden crate packing with inner plastic or foam protects the surface during transit

Technical Features
How It Is Built
- Hollow shell formed from two hemispheres over a mould and welded together
- Weld joint ground and polished to be invisible on the finished surface
- 304 or 316 stainless steel body depending on the indoor environment
- Mirror, brushed or painted finish applied to the same shell for consistency
- Custom diameter as standard, not as a special order
Materials
Body Materials and Where Each One Suits
- 304 stainless steel for standard indoor environments with low humidity
- 316 stainless steel where cleaning chemicals or high humidity are present
- Mirror polish, which reflects the interior space and enhances depth
- Brushed finishing, which reduces glare and hides minor surface marks
- Painting, where the design calls for a non-reflective, coloured surface
Manufacturing Process
How the Part Is Made
- Scheme design against the indoor space, which sets form, size and finish
- Small model created and scaled up with internal support structure designed
- Plaster mould taken from the model for forming the shell
- Steel plate forged to the mould and ground repeatedly to build the shell
- Surface polished mirror, brushed or sprayed based on the specification
- Welded assembly on site, so the joint can be finished out after installation
Quality Control
What Is Checked Before It Ships
- The company states it runs its own professional QC team
- Weld between hemispheres is ground and polished to be invisible
- Repeated grinding before surface treatment ensures a smooth base
- Inner plastic or foam padding protects the surface during packing
Customization
What Can Be Changed to Suit You
- Any diameter to specification; the company states spheres from 25 mm to 10 m
- Mirror, brushed, painted or coloured finish available
- 304 or 316 body to suit the indoor environment
- Ordered from a photograph or a drawing supplied by the customer
- Base and fixing detail designed for indoor installation
Comparison
How It Compares With the Alternatives
| A painted steel sphere | Painted steel may cost less initially but requires repainting over time; stainless holds its finish permanently in indoor settings |
|---|---|
| A bronze or corten sculpture | Bronze and corten are chosen for their patina and weathering; stainless is chosen for a consistent, reflective surface indoors |
| A fiberglass sculpture | Fiberglass is lighter and cheaper but cannot be mirror polished and is not suitable for high-traffic indoor spaces |
| A glass sphere | Glass is fragile and not suitable for indoor lobbies with foot traffic; stainless is durable and impact-resistant |
Use Guide
Fitting and Running It
- Fix the diameter against the scale of the lobby, not against a catalogue size
- Place the sphere where it reflects architectural features, lighting or people
- Plan for a secure indoor base and fixing detail to prevent movement
- Clean the mirror surface with water and a soft cloth; avoid abrasives
- Specify 316 stainless steel if the lobby has high humidity or frequent cleaning
- Allow 25 to 30 days for production plus 15 to 20 days for transport from the factory
