Once again marrying stone and copper as he did with Conquest, this fountain features two Autumn Gold rocks, with their gold, tan and green surfaces shot through with white veins.
The vines have taken on a deep green verdigris patina
The water falls from nine copper "vines" that crawl to the top of the tall stone into a pool in the broad rock. Each vine opens up with a diagonally sliced spout with a small copper curl at its top.
From the heart-shaped basin in the broad rock, the water falls into the ground, beneath which is a basin where the hidden pump does its magic.
"This has been such a fun process…. The neighbors are quite intrigued and we've had so many compliments on her. It's great to have such a unique piece right there in the front as you walk up to the house."
-- Roxanne Heiden, Ahwatukee, Arizona
