OVERHANGING LEDGE FOUNTAIN
Six Ledges That Stick Out, So the Water Falls Clear
A rock fountain where the ledges sit flush lets the water cling to the stone all the way down. What you get is a wet rock face. A rock fountain where the ledges overhang throws the water clear, and what you see is six separate falls with daylight visible behind each one.
That is the whole difference between this and most of the category, and it is a structural decision rather than a decorative one. Each of the six ledges cantilevers out past the one below it, which is also why the piece is nearly twenty inches long at the base. It needs the footprint to carry the overhangs.
Six lights sit underneath the ledges rather than above or in front of them, so after dark each fall is lit from behind at the moment it leaves the rock. Free falling water lit from underneath is considerably brighter than water sliding down a face, because the light goes through it rather than bouncing off stone.
What You Get With This Overhanging Ledge Fountain
-
01
The ledges overhang.
Each one cantilevers past the one below, so the water falls through air rather than clinging to the rock. Six clear falls instead of a wet stone face.
-
02
Six lights, one under each ledge.
Set underneath rather than in front, so each fall is lit from behind as it leaves the rock. Free falling water lit this way is much brighter than water running down a face.
-
03
Nineteen and a half by fourteen inches at the base.
The footprint is what makes the overhangs possible, and it is also what lets forty inches of height stand steadily without anchoring.
-
04
Low voltage pump, UL listed, nothing to plumb.
It recirculates its own water from one standard outdoor outlet. No connection, no digging, no electrician.
Against something dark, front on. The overhanging falls read best when there is a shadowed background for the lit water to stand against, so a fence, a hedge or a wall in shade. It needs nineteen and a half by fourteen inches of level ground. Level matters more here than on a flush faced piece, because cantilevered ledges are aimed, and a tilt sends a fall past the edge of the ledge below rather than onto it.
