TILTED CHUTE FOUNTAIN
Four Chutes, All Tipped Toward You
A chute set flat sends water down the front of a column, where it clings to the surface and what you see is a wet stripe. A chute tilted forward throws the water clear of the face, so it falls through air into the one below and you see four distinct falls with daylight behind them.
That is the only structural idea in the piece and it is enough, because it changes what a narrow column fountain looks like. Dark gray stone texture, four chutes, and warm light sitting inside each one so the falling water is lit from behind after dark.
Twelve inches by eleven and a half at the base, thirty nine inches tall, and eighteen and three quarter pounds. It is among the lightest floor pieces at this height, which means one person carries it out, sets it, and brings it in again without help.
What You Get With This Tilted Chute Fountain
-
01
The chutes tilt forward.
Water leaves the face of the column and falls through air rather than clinging to the surface, so you get four clear falls instead of a wet stripe down the front.
-
02
Warm light inside each chute.
The light sits behind the water rather than in front of the piece, so after dark the four falls are lit from within and the column goes black around them.
-
03
A foot square at the base.
Thirty nine inches of height on a footprint that fits a balcony corner, a narrow side return, or the gap beside a door.
-
04
Eighteen and three quarter pounds.
One of the lightest floor fountains at this height, so one person handles it completely, including bringing it in for winter.
Front on, and against something. The tilted chutes throw water forward, which is an effect you see from the front and lose from the side, so a fence, a wall or a corner behind it is right. A balcony, a narrow side return, beside a door, or the end of a deck. It needs about a foot square of level ground. Level matters here, since forward tilted chutes are aimed, and a tilt puts the water somewhere other than the chute below.
