Kabut Bird Bath: Stylish round stone bowl on Frangipani base, 95 cm

The calming image of a morning fog is reflected in the Kabut Bird Bath. Its name, derived from the Indonesian word for fog, captures the fresh and tranquil mood of a garden at dawn. The generous, round stone bowl rests on an artistically designed, bulbous base, decorated with open Frangipani flower reliefs. These handcrafted flowers, known as "Jepun" in Bali, symbolize purity and life and give the bird bath a special aesthetic. Besides serving as a bird bath, it is also a real eye-catcher as a decorative plant pot, bringing tropical flair to your outdoor space. With a height of about 95 cm, the Kabut Bird Bath provides birds with a generous water source for drinking and bathing. The three-part design – consisting of a stand base, Frangipani middle section, and the bowl – ensures easy assembly and stable standing. Made from robust reinforced stone cast, this model combines Balinese craftsmanship with high durability. Whether as a bird bath, plant container, or decorative element on a terrace, garden, or courtyard – the Kabut adds a stylish touch to any environment. Please note that the material is not frost-resistant and the bird bath should be stored protected in winter.

Balinese Stone Casting Art with Floral Details

On the island of Bali, stone processing has a long tradition. While temple sculptures are usually made from solid natural stone, artisans use finely crafted stone cast for decorative objects. This method allows for intricate and detailed ornaments that preserve the charm of Balinese motifs. A particularly popular motif is the Frangipani flower, which is considered a symbol of beauty, purity, and spiritual renewal in Bali. The artistically designed reliefs are carefully transferred into molds by experienced craftsmen and then cast with a mixture of natural stone, sand, and cement. This results in fine, stable surfaces that are particularly resilient due to internal reinforcement. After curing, the details are hand-finished, allowing the floral patterns to stand out and smoothing out any imperfections. Some designs are combined with layered glass, which creates fascinating effects depending on the light. Each piece is unique with individual structures and showcases the masterful art of Balinese craftsmen, who combine traditional techniques with modern design.
