{"product_id":"tali","title":"Tali","description":"\u003cp\u003eTali is a tabletop sculpture in the shape of a jack, the small six-pointed piece from the game American children once played with a rubber ball on porches and kitchen floors. The name looks further back: tali is Latin for knucklebones, one of the oldest games on record, and jacks is its living descendant.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSix prongs, each a rounded teardrop, radiate from a common center as one continuous piece. Set Tali down any way at all, and three prongs meet the surface while three point up. It lands standing, every time, with nothing to balance and nothing to adjust.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe metal is polished to a mirror, so the sculpture borrows its color from wherever it stands: near a window it carries a thin line of daylight on every prong, and under an evening lamp it keeps a small bright spot going until the lamp goes off. Polished gold warms what it reflects; polished silver returns it cool.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThere are two sizes. Large measures 15 cm, 5.9 inches, in every direction, sized for a console, a wide shelf or a stack of books. Small measures 11 cm, 4.3 inches, and fits a desk or a nightstand.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTali was designed by Kacper Niezabitowski, architect and artist from Poland, as his second piece for The Soft Minimal. The game this shape comes from was a child's exercise in attention, and the sculpture holds that stillness where you work and rest. Care is a soft, dry cloth. Duties and taxes are included in the price you see.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo sizes: Large 15 x 15 x 15 cm (5.9 x 5.9 x 5.9 in), Small 11 x 11 x 11 cm (4.3 x 4.3 x 4.3 in)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePolished metal with a mirror finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo finishes: polished gold and polished silver\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSix teardrop prongs in one continuous form: however it is set down, it stands on three points\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDesigned by Kacper Niezabitowski, his second work for The Soft Minimal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCare: wipe with a soft, dry cloth\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Thesoftminimal.com","offers":[{"title":"Gold \/ Large 15 cm","offer_id":67594680467771,"sku":"TALI-15-GOLD","price":68.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Gold \/ Small 11 cm","offer_id":67594680500539,"sku":"TALI-11-GOLD","price":68.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Silver \/ Large 15 cm","offer_id":67594680533307,"sku":"TALI-15-SILVER","price":68.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Silver \/ Small 11 cm","offer_id":67594680566075,"sku":"TALI-11-SILVER","price":68.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0931\/1214\/0091\/files\/hf_20260928_140356_5bc7c4cf-2db6-4075-a814-bfee6c7aa516.png?v=1790610006","url":"https:\/\/thesoftminimal.com\/products\/tali","provider":"Thesoftminimal.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
