Lembah Bird Bath: Round Stone Bowl on Artistic Frangipani Base, 105 cm
Like a quiet valley that gently blends into nature, the
Lembah Bird Bath brings harmonious elegance to your garden. Its name
Lembah means
valley in Indonesian and reflects the soothing atmosphere it radiates.
The generous, round stone bowl rests on an artistically crafted
Frangipani base, whose open floral motifs give it a light and airy effect. The handcrafted
Frangipani flowers (in Balinese "Jepun") symbolize
purity and life and make this bird bath a stylish eye-catcher. With a height of about
105 cm, it not only provides a practical water source for garden birds but also serves as an elegant platform for plants. The floral design transforms it into an expressive decorative object that stands out beautifully in gardens, terraces, or indoors.
Made from robust
reinforced stone cast, the Lembah Bird Bath combines traditional Balinese craftsmanship with high stability. The two-part construction with a separate
base and bowl facilitates transport and setup. Please note that the product is
not frost-resistant and should be protected or stored indoors during winter.
Balinese Stone Casting Art – Floral Beauty in Every Detail
Stone processing in Bali has a long tradition. While temples are usually made of solid natural stone, the delicate beauty of decorative objects is created through artistic
stone casting. This process allows for fine patterns and detailed ornaments that preserve the character of Balinese art.
A particularly popular motif is the
Frangipani flower, known as "Jepun" in Bali. It stands for
beauty, purity, and spiritual renewal and is deeply rooted in Balinese culture – whether in carvings, offerings, or tropical gardens. The flowers are shaped as reliefs to bring the floral patterns vividly into the stone.
The shapes are cast with a mixture of natural stone, sand, and cement, often in several layers, to achieve a fine, stable surface. To prevent cracking, the stone cast is
reinforced, significantly increasing durability.
After hardening, hand finishing takes place: contours are refined, and unevenness is smoothed out. Particularly impressive are designs combined with layered glass that captures light and creates a fascinating atmosphere depending on the time of day.
Each piece is unique, shaped by the individual structure of the cast and the careful work of Balinese artisans. This combination of tradition and modern design results in a unique garden object that radiates tropical elegance.
