Mimeo Cascade
Mimeo and Mimeo Cascade draws on the contemplative nature of water features and geometric forms found in Islamic gardens. The ethereal water bowl of Mimeo is raised up on a plinth to create Mimeo Cascade where the fountain’s water streams are expertly guided to form an ethereal web, continuing the Islamic appreciation for finely crafted water features.

Design details
Clear running water has historically been a significant feature in Islamic gardens, holding a sacred status. It permeates outdoor spaces with the soothing sense of peace and trickling water.
Handcrafted from elegant copper and bronze with an aged verdigris finish, Mimeo Cascade creates a modern, gravity-defying mystique all of its own. We include free UK delivery, and all the water feature kit you need to install your piece perfectly.
Mimeo, a simpler version of Mimeo Cascade, sits beautifully as a focal point on the surface of a pool of water. Here, the colours of Mimeo are soft, warm, chestnut hues of antique bronze finish. Similar to Corten steel, the mellow tones develop a bespoke patina with age.
As water flows from the handcrafted bronze water bowl at night, it’s backlit by LED lighting to form a glistening curtain of light that complements the verdigris finish and decorative lattice fretwork around the rim.
Like a luxurious bird bath, this bowl water feature can either be placed onto an existing body of water where it appears to float with a strong reflection on the surface of the water; or on top of its own reservoir tank, as a self-contained fountain water feature for a courtyard setting.
Product information
There are several ways that a Mimeo can be installed, but most installations fall into the following scenarios:
- The reservoir tank supplied with the feature can be dug into the ground.
- The reservoir tank supplied with the feature can sit at ground level.
- If you have an existing pond or plan to build one, the piece can sit on a tripod above the water.
Installation and delivery are included in the price for UK commissions and for overseas, shipping quotes can be obtained and charged at cost.
If installed correctly with a suitable filtration and softening package, then maintenance required is minimal. Typically, this would consist of draining the piece four times a year, removal of any debris and refilling with fresh water.
In areas of hard water or high salt content, the tank will need to be drained down more frequently as the concentration of salts in the water increases over time.
Maintenance instructions will be issued on installation.
