Waterbearing Designs

He's bigger. And, he's a bit different. He's still a bronze fountain spout like his little brother Karlo. Big Karlo can handle more water and project a wider stream of water than Karlo. He has the presence to handle a swimming pool bond beam. But which one's older? They're not telling.

It's kind of a big spout that can handle considerable water volume, but looks good with a low water flow.

This is a bronze spout with strong lines sized for use in any moderately sized landscape fountain or swimming pool. The design is very clean and elegant and can find a home in a contemporary design as well as something more minimal. And, lest we forget, it's beautiful.

We all start somewhere. The spouts I sell start with a wax casting. It's the first step in a process called investment casting. So I sit in the workshop, melt wax and pour it into silicone molds. The process is decidedly anti-climactic. It's rather finicky work. The first casting never works...

Karlo is a medium sized bronze fountain spout that works well in most installations. The square shape harmonizes with common landscape elements. It's a nice in-between size that works well on a smaller swimming pool water feature or a wall fountain. The spout produces a flatish ribbon of water that...

This is a smaller sized bronze spout that excels at low flows and works very well in fountains where the water arc must be kept to a minimum. It's flexible. At low flows it produces an interesting stream of water. At larger flows, the stream is controlled and surprisingly pleasant.

Neenah is small bronze spout. It's an anachronism in a world of "bigger is better" and "would you like to super-size that?" it excels at being small. It's just what's needed in tight and narrow spaces. The water stream doesn't project far from the spout. It handles very...

This is a decorative bronze fountain spout. The spout is about the right size for a swimming pool bond beam or an average sized landscape fountain. The refined shape is works well in many settings.

This is a bronze spout with an open top and a fairly long projection. It has a formidable presence and a fairly long water arc. The long water projection allows it to be used in a swimming pool where the spout sits above the coping. It has all the usual refinements: it's easy to install, it's...

This is a smaller spout resembling what's called a Lamb's tongue scupper which is commonly found on building walls to handle rain water. It can be used on a smaller swimming pool bond beam or an average sized wall fountain. The shape is nice round and friendly. If one was to accidentaly bump...
