School Metal Mirror Polished Stainless Steel Hollow Ball Water Fountain Sculpture manufactured in stainless steel
Product Category

Stainless Steel Water Drop Ripple and Fountain Sculpture

Watertight mirror polished forms with the flow tube built in, so the piece arrives ready to plumb rather than fabricated at the pond edge.

Buyers

Who This Category Is For

A water piece is a plumbing component and a sculpture at the same time, so we build the water path in rather than around it.

  • Landscape architects designing a rill pond or plaza water feature
  • Water feature contractors sourcing the sculptural element
  • Hotels and resorts commissioning a courtyard fountain
  • Public realm and campus projects with a water element
  • Private garden clients replacing a failed cast feature
  • Sculptures adapted into water features leak at the seam once they are filled
  • Flow tubes fitted on site look improvised and are hard to service
  • Pump sizing goes wrong when the internal geometry is unknown
  • Chlorinated or hard water pits the wrong grade of stainless steel
  • A drop or ripple form loses its line if the weld is not fully ground out
Advantages

What You Get With This Range

  • Forms made watertight so a sphere or drop can float or hold water
  • Funnel shaped top hole and bottom hole formed for the flow tube
  • Seam welds ground and blended so the reflected line stays clean
  • AISI 316 available where pool chemistry or hard water is a factor
  • Basins bases and spill plates made to match the sculpture
  • Shop drawings for large pieces so the tank and pump can be sized early

FAQ

Water Drop and Fountain Buying Questions

Do you supply the pump?

No. We build the sculpture watertight with the flow path formed in, and give you the internal geometry so your contractor can size the pump and tank.

Can a sphere float on a pond?

Yes. Fountain spheres are made watertight for exactly that. Tell us whether it will float or be fixed so we detail the base correctly.

Which grade for a chlorinated pool?

316. Pool chemistry and hard water are both chloride problems and 304 will eventually pit.

Will the water leave marks on the mirror finish?

Hard water leaves deposits on any polished surface. Wash with clean water and a soft cloth; avoid chloride based cleaners.

How long does a water feature take to build?

15 to 30 days after the deposit is received, at the longer end where a basin and a spill plate are made with the sculpture.
