This magnificent water wall feature is fully self-contained and manufactured from Corten steel, which provides it with its spectacular, unique appearance. As water flows gracefully down the feature, the Corten steel reacts to create a layer of rust, thereby oxidising the surface to provide weatherproof and corrosion-resistant qualities as well as a striking, rustic aesthetic. Weathered steel is quickly becoming a staple of modernistic architecture and the rapturous talking point of designers, praised for its unique contemporary style.
The Corten material takes approximately 3 days to start to develop its protective layer - depending on weather conditions - progressing from traditionally silver steel to the earthy hue of oxidised metal, bringing a burst of orange colour to complement flowers and gardens. Special welding techniques are implemented to ensure consistent weathering for the optimum antique feel, whilst integrated LED lights illuminate the feature to create a stunning visual effect day or night. As a self-contained feature this arrives with everything you need to get it working immediately, and there is no need to bury a separate reservoir; simply add water, connect it up to the power, and you're ready! Perfect for outdoor use, this wall water feature is guaranteed to provide a stunning focal point to any garden or patio area. Standing at an impressive 1.75m tall, is guaranteed to provide a stunning focal point to any garden or patio area.
A lot of water features come pre-assembled for the most part, with just a little hose/pump connecting to do before plugging it in to a solar panel or mains socket. Some of our bigger ones require wiring in a plug (which might involve a Part P Certified electrician), but otherwise all instructions will be included.

Corten is a type of steel that naturally weathers over time, developing an attractive and protective rust layer. This layer develops due to the elements active in the alloys of the steel which regenerates continuously when subjected to water & oxygen. Although to achieve the finished look the steel has rusted, the surface layer acts as a protective coating and reduces further corrosion. When you receive your corten steel product, it will appear silver - once exposed to the elements for at least 3 days, the rust layer will start to form to give the product it's final rustic look.
Please note: The beautiful, unique colouring shown above takes at least 3 days to form - when you receive the wall, it will appear silver. The layer of protective rust will form over a few days, providing the wall with extra protection against the elements as well as a beautiful and unusual patina.
