Stainless Steel Sculpture
large stainless steel sculpture—Space-time tunnel
A large stainless steel sculpture designed as a space-time tunnel is intended for public or urban spaces where a sculptural form must hold visual weight without figurative reference. The piece is a hollow, free-standing form made from 304 or 316 stainless steel, with a shell thickness between 1.0 and 3.0 mm. It is meant to stand in a plaza, park, or architectural forecourt, where its reflective surface interacts with light, movement, and the surrounding environment. The listed size is not fixed; it is made to any size on request. The surface is available in the original stainless steel finish or custom colour, with delivery expected 15 to 30 days after deposit.

- 316 stainless steel where coastal air or road salt is present
- Original stainless steel finish for a reflective, metallic surface
- Custom colour finish for integration with a specific design palette
- 1.0 to 3.0 mm thickness to suit the scale and structural demands of the form
Manufacturing Process
How the Part Is Made
- Scheme design developed against the site context and intended visual effect
- Concept model created and scaled to the final form
- Mould or forming tool prepared based on the final shape
- Stainless steel plate formed and welded into the shell structure
- Surface treated with original finish or custom colour application
- Final assembly and delivery after confirmation of finish and size
Quality Control
What Is Checked Before It Ships
- The company states it runs its own professional QC team
- Welds are ground and finished to match the surface, avoiding visible seams
- Thickness verified within the 1.0 to 3.0 mm range for structural consistency
- Surface finish inspected for uniformity before packing
- Packing and delivery planned to protect the surface during transit
Customization
What Can Be Changed to Suit You
- Any size on request, with no standard dimensions listed

Comparison
How It Compares With the Alternatives
| A painted mild steel sculpture | Painted steel is cheaper initially but requires repainting; stainless holds its finish permanently and resists corrosion |
|---|---|
| A bronze sculpture | Bronze develops a patina over time; this stainless steel form maintains a consistent surface without change |
| A corten steel sculpture | Corten is chosen for its weathered appearance; this piece is intended to remain reflective and unchanged |
| A fiberglass sculpture | Fiberglass is lighter and cheaper at large sizes but cannot achieve a true mirror finish or withstand heavy outdoor use |
Use Guide
Fitting and Running It
- Define the size based on the space it will occupy, not on a catalogue standard
- Ensure the site has a stable foundation capable of supporting the sculpture's weight and wind load
- Choose 316 stainless steel if the site is near the coast or exposed to de-icing salts
- Specify custom colour early to align with the project's design timeline
- Plan the 15 to 30 day production window from deposit to delivery
- Confirm base and fixing details with the installation team before production begins
