Birds on Cups Metal Rain Chain for Gutters 2.4m

Decorative Metal Rain Chain with Bird and Cup Design

Enhance your gutter system with this Birds on Cups Metal Rain Chain, designed to guide rainwater from roof to ground while adding a refined decorative element to your exterior. Crafted from weather-resistant metal, each link features a small cup accented with a perched bird, creating a continuous vertical chain that is both functional and visually appealing.

At 2.4 m (94.5 in) in total length, this rain chain is suitable for most standard single-story gutter drops. Water flows from the gutter opening into the top cup, then gently cascades from cup to cup, reducing splashing compared to open-flow alternatives. The sculpted cups are shaped to capture and direct water effectively, making this a practical replacement for a traditional downspout in appropriate locations. At ground level, you can position a basin, decorative bowl, or rain barrel to collect runoff for garden use.

Why It's a Smart Choice

• Durable metal construction - Built to withstand rain, wind, and sun exposure for long-term outdoor use.
• Decorative downspout alternative - Transforms a functional drainage point into an attractive vertical feature with bird and cup motifs.
• Smooth water guidance - Cup design helps channel water downward, supporting controlled runoff and easy collection in containers.
