This is a medium version of my custom Agave Cactus Fountain, measuring 3 feet high instead of 5 feet high.  It also has a bowl base, and the water trickles out of the agave blooms above down the copper stalk into the agave cactus spines and the bowl base below. As with all of my fountains, the agave blooms, stalk, leaves, and the bowl base itself are all hand-cut, shaped, and assembled by me completely out of copper. I even hand-patina each of the agave spines. The fountain is 3 feet (36 inches) tall, and the base is 2 feet wide.

Created by Roberto in Tucson, Arizona, since 2008.

The creation of handmade copper water fountains begins with the selection of high-quality materials. Roberto sources premium copper, known for its natural resistance to corrosion and versatility in design.

Each fountain is crafted with precision, involving intricate cutting, shaping, welding, and embossing techniques (torching copper) that highlight the unique characteristics of copper. The result is a stunning piece that captures the light beautifully and develops an alluring patina over time, enhancing its visual appeal.…
