Design details

A hemispherical sundial reimagined as a flowing garden fountain, the Chalice reflects Earth’s revolutions around the Sun. Writing in the 5th century BC, the Greek historian Herodotus told of a sacred fountain of youth. Following his mythical accounts, the Chalice design brings youthful energy and soft movement to illuminate your outdoor space.

The water bowl shape is made with mirror-polished stainless steel. A tough and durable metal which will resist weathering and last a lifetime. Suited to both indoor and outdoor living, luxurious Chalice imbues a sense of calm and serenity thanks to the soothing sound of the water.

To work as an accurate timepiece, Chalice’s stainless-steel hemisphere slowly revolves on its axis. Water flows on the outside whilst the time is shown on the inside of the bowl.

“I wanted to write personally to say thankyou for the wonderful Chalice, which is giving immense pleasure, and I am sure will continue to do so.”

Fire Chalice is a fascinating variation of our award-winning Chalice outdoor water feature. It works as ethereal centrepiece by day and a fiery focal point at night.

The eye-catching Sky Mirror Chalice retains Chalice’s outer ring of swirling water but replaces its inner hemisphere and sundial with mirror-polished stainless steel to reflect the sky.
