SPLIT SLATE WATER WALL
Two Channels, Lit From the Arch Down
One arched cap spanning two ribbed channels, with a groove down the middle where they divide. That division is what turns a slab into a piece. A single flat panel with water on it is a wet rectangle. Splitting it into two channels under one arch gives you a rhythm and a center line, and the eye reads it as built rather than cast.
Light sits in two places, in the arched cap at the top and in the basin at the bottom. So after dark you get the start of both sheets lit from the cap and the landing lit from below, with the dark molded slate between them. That top and bottom arrangement is a deliberately different effect from lighting the middle.
Under eight inches of depth, which is the practical argument. It stands flat against a wall, a fence or a balcony rail without taking width out of a walkway, and it holds a gallon and a half so it is not asking to be topped up every day.
What You Get With This Split Slate Fountain
-
01
Two channels under one arch.
A single arched cap over a split ribbed face, which gives the piece a center line and a rhythm instead of one flat expanse of stone.
-
02
Lit at the cap and at the basin.
In the arch where both sheets start, and at the bottom where they land, with the dark slate between. Most pieces light one end and leave the other.
-
03
Under eight inches deep.
It stands flat against a wall, a fence or a balcony rail without taking width out of a walkway. That is the whole point of a wall style fountain.
-
04
A gallon and a half of water.
Enough reservoir that it is not asking to be topped up daily, which small wall pieces often are.
Flat against something, front on. A fence, a render wall, the side of a house, a balcony rail, or the end of a walkway. It needs under eight inches of depth. Gray slate suits modern paving, painted render, composite decking and steel, and we make the same form in light brown sandstone if you want something warmer against brick and timber. Level ground matters, because twin sheets show a tilt at once as one running heavier than the other.
