CONCRETE ORB COLUMN
A Sphere, a Shallow Bowl, and Real Concrete
The bowl is deliberately shallow. Two and a third inches, which is just enough to catch what the sphere gives it and no more. A deep bowl holds a lot of still water and the movement gets lost in it. A shallow one keeps the whole surface in motion, so the water reads as a thin moving film across the bowl rather than a pool with a ripple in the middle.
That also means it runs on very little. Seven tenths of a gallon in the whole system and a two and a bit watt pump, which is about as little as a fountain can use and still do something.
It is cast concrete rather than resin, so twenty five and a half inches weighs twenty five and a half pounds and the surface will pick up a little color from weather over the first seasons. The light sits at the sphere, so after dark the orb is the lit thing and the column below it goes dark.
What You Get With This Concrete Orb Fountain
-
01
A two inch bowl, on purpose.
Shallow enough that the whole surface stays in motion instead of the movement getting lost in a pool of still water.
-
02
It uses almost nothing.
Seven tenths of a gallon in the system and a two watt pump. Very little water to top up and very little power to run it.
-
03
Cast concrete, not resin.
Twenty five pounds at twenty five inches, with a surface that picks up color from weather over the first seasons rather than staying exactly as it arrived.
-
04
Lit at the sphere.
The orb is the lit thing after dark and the column goes dark beneath it, so what you see is a glowing ball at knee height rather than a floodlit post.
Somewhere modern and plain. Paving, gravel, render, a clipped hedge, or planting chosen for structure. The piece is two simple shapes and it looks best where the surroundings are not competing. It needs about twelve inches square of ground. Set it level, because a shallow bowl shows a tilt immediately as water gathering on one side, and at this depth there is no margin at all.
