COPPER BOWL COLUMN
Four Bowls Lit, the Top One Left Dark
Leaving the top bowl unlit is a decision, not an omission. Light every bowl on a column and the eye has nowhere to settle, because the whole height competes with itself. Leave the top one dark and the piece has a top, the lit bowls step away below it, and there is somewhere for the sequence to begin.
The bowls are copper toned with incised banding cut around them, staggered to alternating sides of a gray stone column so the water crosses on every drop. Below them the water lands in a ribbed base vessel rather than an open basin, which keeps the sound contained.
Just under forty inches on a fifteen and three quarter inch square, and thirty two pounds. The lights are rings rather than points, set into the bowls, so what you see after dark is four lit circles stepping down a dark column.
What You Get With This Copper Bowl Fountain
-
01
The top bowl is left unlit on purpose.
It gives the column a top and lets the four lit bowls step away below it, instead of the whole height competing with itself.
-
02
Ring lights, not points.
Set into each of the lower four bowls, so after dark you read four lit circles down a dark column rather than four bright dots.
-
03
Incised banding on copper toned bowls.
Cut into the surface rather than printed on, so the bands catch the ring light from inside the bowl and the detail shows at night as well as in daylight.
-
04
A ribbed base vessel instead of an open basin.
The water lands inside a shaped vessel, which contains the sound and keeps splash off the surrounding ground.
Front on, with something plain behind it. The staggered bowls and the unlit top only read from the front, and a busy background works against a column with this much happening on it. A patio, a terrace corner, beside a door, or against a fence. It needs about sixteen inches square of ground. Set it level, since bowls on alternating sides show a tilt as one side filling faster than the other.
