Know before you buy
The basin serves as a decorative anchor for your rain chain. It prevents the chain from swaying in high winds and collects rainwater, which you can then reuse for your garden.
Yes, the basin features a large brass connector designed to be compatible with most standard rain chains. It provides a stable, secure attachment point regardless of the specific chain style.
The blue verde finish is a hand-rubbed patina applied to pure copper. Like all copper, it is designed for outdoor use and will continue to age and develop character over time while remaining durable.
At 16.5 inches in diameter and crafted from 20-gauge copper, the basin has a substantial footprint. For added stability and visual appeal, you can fill the bottom with decorative rocks or stones.
Because it is made of pure copper, it is naturally resistant to rust and decay. You may occasionally want to clear out debris or sediment to keep the water collection clean, but no specialized maintenance is required.
