This traditional cup style complements virtually any home architecture from traditional to contemporary. The bucket cup design provides excellent water containment with minimal splash, making it ideal for both aesthetic appeal and functional water management.

V-Hook Included - Easy Installation:

A matching color V-hook is included for easy installation. The V-hook fits into standard 2x3 and 3x4 gutter outlets, allowing you to hang your rain chain directly from your existing gutter system without modification. After the quick no-tool assembly, simply remove your downspout, insert the V-hook, and hang your rain chain!

The premium copper construction develops a gorgeous natural patina over time, progressing from bright copper to rich bronze and eventually to distinctive verdigris green. The cup-style design provides superior water containment compared to link-style chains, reducing splash while creating soothing sounds.
