Water features such as fountains benefit from the reflective qualities stemming from dark materials. If your objective is to showcase your new feature at night, underwater lights in varied colors and shapes will do the trick. The sun is essential to power eco-lights during the day time while submerged lights are great for night use. Natural therapies use them because they release a calming effect which helps to relieve stress as well as anxiety.

The Original Outdoor Garden Fountains

The Original Outdoor Garden Fountains The water from springs and other sources was originally delivered to the citizens of nearby communities and cities via water fountains, whose purpose was primarily practical, not artistic. To make water flow through a fountain until the late 1800’s, and generate a jet of water, mandated the force of gravity and a water source such as a creek or lake, located higher than the fountain. Typically used as memorials and commemorative edifices, water fountains have influenced people from all over the world all through the centuries. The common fountains of today bear little similarity to the very first water fountains. Simple stone basins created from local stone were the first fountains, used for religious ceremonies and drinking water. 2,000 B.C. is when the oldest identified stone fountain basins were originally used. The jet of water appearing from small spouts was pushed by gravity, the only power source builders had in those days. The location of the fountains was driven by the water source, which is why you’ll usually find them along reservoirs, canals, or rivers. Fountains with embellished Gods, mythological monsters, and animals began to appear in Rome in about 6 BC, made from natural stone and bronze. Water for the public fountains of Rome was brought to the city via a complex system of water aqueducts.
