Garden fountains are great for the yard of a home or office. Many different varieties of water fountains such as those placed on the ground, on a pedestal or on a table, and also the wall-hanging types, are available in various materials such as marble, slate, wood and copper. Their prices range from $ 150 to $ 2000, according to their decorative looks and materials used. Antique fountains as well as their replicas are also available so that you can make the garden appear romantic.
Copper lends to the brilliance of fountains as it glows in the sun’s rays and adds to the water’s sparkle, better than that with other materials. Some copper wall fountains in the market are made with copper and slate, where the slate’s charcoal color enhances the shine of the copper.
One type of a copper wall fountain has a mirror made of copper in the middle, and the water flows in sheets over it. The mirror is somewhat undulated to enhance the water’s sparkle in sunlight as it flows down to the bottom trough of the copper wall fountain.
Another type of a copper wall fountain has slate in the background and copper in the bottom trough. The slate is moon shaped with a light grey color. Water flows out from the slate moon’s base simulating fall of water from the sky to the earth.
In a third type of copper indoor water fountain, copper forms the background for the slate. Most of the slate is colored light grey, and there is a vase of black slate with some orchids at the top, in the middle of the copper wall fountain. The water flows out of the vase, just below the orchids, and creates a peaceful and soothing effect.
Yet another type of copper wall fountain is totally made of copper. Two shelves are there which create a cascade of water down into a pool at the copper wall fountain’s bottom.
