Slate Sculpture
Known for its durability and attractive color, Welsh slate infuses character into sculpture. Organic in shape and texture, slate designs look particularly charming in natural, outdoor spaces among wild planting. The color will change in the rain from warm gray to heather-like purple.

Slate sculpture questions
Natural slate from Welsh slate mines is a hardy material. Traditionally used for dry stone walls, the natural stone will happily withstand the elements. Some slates do not freeze well, but this is not the case with the Welsh slate used by David Harber, which can withstand temperatures below zero.
Clean your slate sculpture by hosing it with water and rubbing with a stiff brush.
The natural character of slate allows it to be positioned in many outdoor sites. It can be used as a charming focal point at the end of a pathway or as outdoor art within wild, naturalistic planting. Our Dark Planet fountain sphere sculpture makes for an alluring centerpiece for a pond or pool – even more so when raised onto a pedestal. The water cascades down the face, changing the gray color of the slate to deep purple.
