WALL FOUNTAIN OUTDOOR
A Cut Metal Screen With Light Coming Through It
A flat metal panel with a foliage pattern laser cut through it, backlit so the leaf shapes glow from behind. Four slim tubes run down the front of the panel carrying water into a rectangular basin at the foot. Grey powder coated frame, warm light behind the cutwork.
This is the only piece here that is a screen rather than a sculpture. Everything else in the range imitates stone, timber, or pottery. This one is a flat metal panel that happens to have water on it, which puts it in a different category and a different kind of garden.
The pattern is cut all the way through, so what you see is light rather than paint. During the day the panel reads as a silhouette against whatever is behind it. After dark the leaves become the light source and the frame disappears.
What Makes This Fountain Different
- The pattern is cut through, not printed on, which is why it works at night. A painted leaf design on a panel is visible in daylight and gone after dark. Cutting the shapes all the way through and lighting from behind means the pattern becomes the light source at dusk, so the piece is doing something completely different at ten at night than it was at noon. Almost nothing in this range changes that much between day and evening.
- A screen, not a sculpture. Everything else here imitates a natural material. This is a flat metal panel, so it belongs with modern architecture, contemporary planting, and gardens that already have straight lines. It also works as a partial screen, blocking a view while still passing light through the cutwork.
- Four slim tubes rather than a sheet. The water runs down thin vertical lines across the face rather than as a curtain, so the pattern behind it stays visible. A full water sheet would obscure the cutwork you paid for.
- Powder coated metal. A finish that is applied to the metal itself rather than painted on resin, which is why the flat surfaces stay flat and the edges of the cut pattern stay crisp.
Four thin streams, quiet and steady. Because the water runs through narrow tubes rather than falling as a sheet, the volume is low and the sound is a fine trickle rather than a splash. It suits a courtyard, a terrace, or a spot beside seating where the visual effect matters more than the noise. How loud it seems will still shift with the water level and whether it stands against a hard wall, which is why a fixed decibel number would tell you nothing useful about your own space.

Setup, Care, and Warranty
Setup and placement
Fill it, plug it in, done. No plumbing and nothing to bury.
Set it against a wall or a fence. This is a flat panel with a lit face, so it is designed to be seen from the front and it needs something solid behind it to lean the effect against.
Wind and the flat panel
A tall flat surface catches wind on the face, and the water runs in thin exposed streams that a breeze will move. Place it in a sheltered position against a wall rather than free standing in an open spot.
Water level and daily care
Keep enough water in the base trough to cover the pump so it never runs dry. Thin exposed streams lose water to drift, so check every few days in warm weather.
Keep the tubes clear. A blocked tube stops one of only four streams, which is immediately obvious on a piece this symmetrical.
Looking after powder coated metal
Wipe the panel with a soft cloth and avoid abrasives, which will mark a powder coat. Check the cut edges for chips each spring, since exposed metal at a cut edge is where corrosion starts. In hard water areas mineral deposits show clearly on a flat coated surface, so clean the wet lines before they set.
Winter storage
Before hard freezes, drain the base trough completely, disconnect and store the pump indoors, and dry the piece out. Water left in the tubes through a freeze can split them, so make sure they run empty.

Questions Before You Choose
Is the pattern cut through or printed?
Cut all the way through the metal. That is why it can be backlit and why the piece looks completely different after dark. A printed pattern would vanish at night.
Can it screen a view?
Partly. The panel is solid apart from the cutwork, so it interrupts a sightline while still passing light and glimpses through the leaf shapes. It is not a privacy screen but it does break up what is behind it.
Where does it belong?
Modern courtyards, terraces, a brick or rendered wall, a contemporary planting scheme. Because it is metal rather than faux stone it sits with architecture rather than with rockery. In a cottage garden it will read as imported from a different scheme.
Is it safe around children and pets?
The cut edges of a metal panel should not be handled by children, and a tall flat piece can be pushed over. Place it against a wall, out of the main running route, on a hard level surface. Run the cord where it will not catch a foot. The recirculating water is not intended for drinking.
