Sold in 8-Foot Sections - Calculate Your Needs:
Rain chains are sold in 8-foot (96-inch) sections with 12 cups per section. Measure from your gutter outlet to where you want the chain to end (typically ground level or into a collection basin). Standard single-story homes typically need 1 section (8ft), while two-story homes may need 2 sections (16ft) connected together. Multiple sections can be linked for any length requirement.
Exclusive Mixed Metal Design - Copper and Brass:
Kanji Cups is a revolutionary rain chain design made of mixed metals. Large flowers crafted from pure copper are supported by thick hand cast, hand carved, detailed brass bases. Pure brass links separate the cups, creating a stunning mixed metal aesthetic. As the chain ages naturally, the two metals take on different tones of color - copper develops its classic patina while brass develops its own golden-brown tones - creating a beautiful and unique two-tone appearance not possible with single-metal designs.
V-Hook Included - Easy Installation:
A matching 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. Since Kanji Cups comes fully assembled, installation takes just minutes - simply remove your downspout, insert the V-hook, and hang your rain chain!
Transform your home's exterior with our exclusive Kanji Cups Rain Chain featuring a stunning mixed metal design of pure copper and solid brass. This revolutionary design combines large copper flower cups supported by thick hand cast, hand carved, detailed brass bases, connected by pure brass links. Each 8-foot section contains 12 beautifully crafted cups (4-3/4" wide x 4-1/4" length with base x 3/4" bottom opening) that guide rainwater in a mesmerizing cascade from gutter to ground. The cup-style design provides superior water containment compared to link-style chains, making it ideal for heavy rainfall areas. As the chain ages, the copper and brass develop different patina tones, creating an evolving two-tone appearance that becomes more beautiful over time. Unlike other rain chains, Kanji Cups comes FULLY ASSEMBLED with matching V-hook included - no tools or assembly required! Perfect for contractors seeking premium mixed-metal options and DIY homeowners who want instant installation with stunning results.
