SLATE TABLETOP FOUNTAIN
Six Drops Inside Fifteen Inches
Six falls in a piece this size is unusual. Most tabletop fountains give you two or three, because each one needs vertical room and there is not much of it inside fifteen inches. This one gets six by stacking thin slate ledges close together and offsetting them, so the water only has to fall an inch or two at a time and it changes direction at every step.
What you get from that is the sound. Six small drops overlapping produce a continuous layered trickle rather than a single repeating splash, and a repeating splash is the thing people find they cannot ignore after an hour at a desk. This one goes into the background.
The slate is gray with the layered texture of a split rock face, and it sits in a matte black basin with a chevron pattern pressed around the outside and pebbles in the bottom. Warm light in the lower basin lifts the whole stack from underneath after dark.
What You Get With This Slate Tabletop Fountain
-
01
Six falls in fifteen inches.
Managed by stacking thin ledges close and offsetting them, so the water steps rather than drops. Most small indoor fountains manage two or three in the same height.
-
02
A layered trickle, not a repeating splash.
Six overlapping small falls give continuous sound instead of one rhythm you start counting. That is the difference between leaving it on all day and switching it off.
-
03
Ten inches square, seven pounds.
A dinner plate of surface and a one hand lift. It fits a desk, a shelf, a reception counter or a bedside table.
-
04
Warm light in the lower basin.
The stack lights from underneath after dark, which throws the ledge edges into relief and puts the texture of the slate on display.
A desk, a shelf, a hall table, a reception counter, a bedside table. It needs a level surface and an outlet, and level matters more than it sounds, because six closely stacked ledges show a tilt straight away as the water starts favoring one side. Put a mat or a coaster under it on a surface that marks, since any fountain moves a little water into the air. It is rated for indoor use.
