The elegant shape of an iris was a natural inspiration for the design of this water
feature. The hand forged petals of
this sculpture were carefully shaped to allow water to flow over the gently curving
metal then cascade into the pond below.
The finish can be left with it's freshly
galvanised
surface that will very slowly weather into a more matt grey. Alternatively, special chemicals can be used to age the finish to a mottled grey black that quickly
weathers into a powdery grey with the look
of old lead.
Water features such as this can be made with either a steel fixing plate or can be cast into a concrete block for direct placement into the water.
Similarly hand forged copper irises can be seen in
this page.
