MOSSY ROCK TABLETOP
Dark Rock With Green in the Joints
Most tabletop rock fountains are pale gray, because pale photographs well on a white background. Pale also disappears on a pale desk. This one is dark mountain rock with green worked down into the joints, which means it reads as a shape against a light wall or a light surface instead of merging into it.
The green is in the joints rather than across the faces, which is where moss actually grows on rock. Painted evenly across the surface it would look like a coat of paint. Settled into the low points it looks like time.
The lights sit within the falling water rather than on the rock, so after dark the moving part glows and the dark stone stays dark around it. The basin is black with a chevron band pressed around it, which is the same base family as several of our other tabletop pieces.
What You Get With This Mossy Rock Fountain
-
01
Dark rock, not pale gray.
It reads as a shape against a light wall or a light desk instead of merging into it, which is the problem with most tabletop rock pieces.
-
02
Green in the joints, not on the faces.
Worked down into the low points where moss actually grows, so it reads as age rather than as a coat of paint.
-
03
Light inside the falling water.
The moving part glows after dark and the dark stone stays dark around it, which is a cleaner effect than lighting the rock face.
-
04
Ten inches square and seven pounds.
A dinner plate of surface and a one hand lift, so a desk, a shelf or a side table all work.
Against something light, so the dark rock has contrast. A pale wall, a light shelf, a white desk. On a dark surface or against dark wood it loses most of what makes it work. It needs a level surface and an outlet, and level matters because four closely stacked tiers show a tilt as water favoring one side. A mat or coaster underneath on anything that marks.
