Zinc bowls for rainwater collection/drainage
French Riviera
Particularity of this reference for the Atelier Auder d'Ornements
Reproducing roof ornaments is always a pleasure.
When a roofing company entrusts you with the realization, it is always with rigor that we carry out the work.
Bowls or water boxes
The Atelier Auder d’Ornements has reproduced, substantially identical to the existing model:
Eight wall-mounted bowls
Two corner bowls
The interest of the water box or bowl
The bowl, a particular and discreet ornament is indispensable in French architecture, and whose simple elegance seduces immediately. In practice, the bowl is used to receive two downpipes which, through the intermediary of the bowl, become one. In roof ornamentation, the bowl, also called water box, can be created or reproduced in zinc or copper.
Ordinary in appearance, it requires special and advanced knowledge and techniques. A know-how that the Atelier Auder d'Ornements possesses. Stéphane and his team have reproduced 8 wall-mounted basins and 2 corner basins almost identically.
