CHARCOAL LEDGE FOUNTAIN
Dark Charcoal, Which Almost Nothing Else Here Is
Cast rock is almost always gray. Mid gray, warm gray, weathered gray, but gray. This one is dark charcoal with layered strata worked through it, and that changes what it does in a space. Gray rock disappears into gray paving. Charcoal reads against it, and it reads much harder against green planting or a pale wall.
It also changes the lighting. Warm light under a charcoal ledge has somewhere dark to sit against, so the lit water is the brightest thing on the piece by a wide margin. On a pale gray fountain the stone competes with the water.
Several short ledges rather than a few tall drops, which gives a finer continuous sound, and at twenty five and a half inches by eight and three quarter deep it is a genuinely compact piece. Fourteen and a quarter pounds, so one hand moves it.
What You Get With This Charcoal Rock Fountain
-
01
Dark charcoal, not gray.
Almost every cast rock fountain is some shade of gray and disappears into gray paving. Charcoal reads against hardscape, planting and pale walls.
-
02
The dark stone makes the light work harder.
Warm light under a charcoal ledge has somewhere dark to sit against, so the lit water is clearly the brightest thing on the piece.
-
03
Under nine inches deep.
It sits against a wall, a fence or a rail without projecting, which most rock pieces cannot do.
-
04
Fourteen and a quarter pounds.
One hand moves it, and at twenty five inches it fits a step, a balcony, a bench end or the front of a border.
Against something pale or green, so the charcoal has contrast to work with. A render wall, a light fence, a hedge, or among planting. Against dark brown fencing it will disappear, which is the one background to avoid. It needs under nine inches of depth, so a walkway, a balcony or a narrow terrace all work. Set it level, since short ledges show a tilt as water favoring one side.
