Bukit Birdbath: Round Stone Bowl on Artistic Frangipani Base, 85 cm

The Bukit Birdbath with its gently curved shape resembles a hill – fitting for its name, which in Indonesian means "Bukit" for hill. It elegantly integrates into various garden landscapes and attracts attention with its organic silhouette. The round bowl made of robust stone rests on a finely crafted hourglass-shaped base, adorned with intricate Frangipani floral reliefs. These artistically designed flowers – known as "Jepun" in Bali – symbolize purity, vitality, and tropical beauty, giving the birdbath a special lightness and elegance. With a height of approximately 85 cm, the birdbath not only provides a stylish water source for feathered garden visitors but can also be used as an attractive plant container. This way, you can create decorative accents on the terrace, balcony, or in the courtyard with a touch of tropical atmosphere. Made from reinforced stone cast, the Bukit Birdbath combines traditional Balinese craftsmanship with robust and durable material quality. The two-part construction – consisting of bowl and base – allows for easy transport and simple assembly on-site. Please note that the material is not frost-resistant and the birdbath should be protected or stored under cover during winter.

Balinese Stone Casting Art – Floral Elegance in Every Detail

The art of stone casting in Bali has a long tradition: While temple statues are often made from solid natural stone, stone casting techniques allow for the creation of intricate and detailed ornaments. Floral motifs, such as the characteristic Frangipani flower ("Jepun"), are transferred as reliefs into molds and cast with a mixture of natural stone, sand, and cement. Through multi-layer casting and reinforcement, the surface acquires a fine, stable structure that is particularly resistant to cracks. After curing, each piece is refined by hand: details are worked out and imperfections carefully smoothed to create a high-quality and unique work of art. This technique combines traditional Balinese motifs with modern craftsmanship, bringing tropical elegance to every outdoor space.
