Will Smith's sculptures are best described in one word: soothing. Water and kaleidoscopes have a calming effect on all who take the time to view them. In this marriage, Smith has created a sculpture of elegance and beauty, combined with the tranquil movement of trickling water.

In the Fountain of Ahh's, two kaleidoscopes face the marble. One has an equilateral mirror system; the other has a 30-60-90 degree mirror-system. As the water propels the sphere into motion, the kaleidoscope images move gracefully from one into the next. From either mirror-system, the images are truly spectacular. Try panning the kaleidoscopes from side to side so that you get a little of the water into the illusion.

Hand blown marbles are made by dozens of glass artists throughout the world. The fun part about the Fountain of Ahh's is its interactive quality. Collect marbles as you travel. Over time, you will realize a meaningful collection of marbles that add to the kaleidoscope experience. It is clearly a conversation piece in any environment.

Each tube has a 2-inch diameter. The fountain stands 21 inches in viewing height with a base dimension of 18 x 18 inches. It can be placed on a pedestal, on a table or even a counter. Prominently displayed it will grace your home with its beauty and elegance and provide endless hours of entertainment for your family and guests alike.

We recommend plugging the pump into a timer so that you will effortlessly enjoy your wonderful sculptural fountain.
