Sculptures for Ponds
Choosing the right garden sculpture for your pond or water feature.
There are a number of things to consider before you purchase your garden sculpture for your pond, too big and it can dominate the garden, too small and it’s lost.
A large pond for a large fountain to ensure you don’t get a soaking on a windy day. It’s fun to watch our children running through water fountains on hot sunny days but this is possibly not the gauntlet you want to run each day in your own garden!
Sound of Water in the Garden
Sound is very important, do you want to hide the sound of traffic or aeroplanes? It doesn’t take much to muffle sounds or rather distract the ear with an alternative sound.
In this particular garden the Client wanted a garden sculpture that they could enjoy from all angles naturally around the garden and also from the house. We chose copper as we wanted to reflect on a sculpture the client had had in a previous garden.
Plants in my pond
There are plants that don’t like to be disturbed by too much moving water such as the Water Lily so chosing your water feature is so important.
The garden sculpture was commissioned from Gary Pickles

Copper Water Feature
The morning glory sculpture is delightful as it catches the sunlight and it is a pleasure to sit by the pond and watch the water delicately tumbling from the flowers and leaves.
