BIRD BATHS CONTEMPORARY
Two Cuts That Cross
The crossing is what separates this column from one with a single opening. One cut gives you a frame. Two that overlap give you a form that seems to move, and the shape you read changes depending on where you stand.
The finish is smooth cool gray with no aggregate showing and no texture applied. The basin is a shallow saucer with a thin edge. Everything about it is pared back.
Two Pieces, One Twist
Every concrete bird bath we carry uses the same twist fit, whatever the shape.
Your Concrete Bird Bath Contemporary Twin Cutout, up in three steps
-
1
Insert top into bottom
Lift the basin onto the pedestal and drop the collar into the socket. Two people make this easy, one person can manage it.
-
2
Twist to lock
Turn the basin a quarter turn until it seats. No adhesive, no fixings, and it comes apart again the same way.
-
3
Level and fill
Check it sits flat all the way round, then fill to about two inches.
What You Get With This Concrete Bird Bath Contemporary Twin Cutout
-
01
Two openings rather than one.
A single cutout frames what is behind it. Two that cross turn the remaining concrete into ribbons, so the column reads as movement rather than as a post with a hole. Walk past it and the shape you see changes, which a symmetrical single opening cannot do.
-
02
Smooth gray, no texture applied.
No aggregate, no stone effect, no carving. A flat cool gray that sits with rendered walls, painted fences and modern paving rather than trying to look like something quarried.
-
03
A thin edged saucer.
The basin is shallow with a fine rim, which keeps the top light against the openwork below. A heavy bowl would make the cutouts look like they were carrying too much.
-
04
Fill to two inches, not to the brim.
A shallow saucer barely needs more. Chickadees stand on the thin rim and sip, robins get right in. Filled to the top it becomes a drinking stop.
A deck, a terrace, modern paving, gravel with grasses. Like any openwork piece it wants something behind it worth seeing through to rather than a solid wall. Twenty two inches is a safe height for birds. Leave open ground on the approach and keep cover within a short flight.
