Know before you buy
No, despite the name, this rain chain is constructed from durable copper. The 'Terracotta' refers to the unique, warm-toned distressed finish applied to the metal.
The chain typically attaches to your gutter's downspout opening using a standard installation clip or V-hook, which is usually included with most rain chain kits. You simply remove the existing downspout and secure the top link of the chain to the gutter outlet.
Yes, because it is made of genuine copper, the finish will naturally patina and darken as it is exposed to the elements. This process enhances the rustic aesthetic and provides a protective layer against further corrosion.
Yes, the link-style construction allows you to easily remove individual links if you need to shorten the chain to fit a specific height requirement. If you need a longer chain, you can purchase two units and connect them together.
Link-style rain chains are designed to guide water downward, but they are more open than cup-style chains. During very heavy downpours, some splashing is normal, so it is best to place the bottom of the chain over a decorative basin, gravel, or a drainage area.
