More Product Information:

The Medium Square Cups are individually crafted, each side is welded by hand. Large nuts and thick wires complete this robust product. This rain chain has a 5 out of 5 waterflow index, so it's one of the best functioning on the market. It works great in varying rainfall conditions. This design is universal and one of our best sellers!

Copper: Available in a smooth, unfinished pure copper or a pre-aged (reddish streaking) option.

Aluminum: Made of pure, unfinished aluminum, so it will darken slightly overtime.

Black and Bronze: Made of aluminum and powder-coated for durability.

Weathered Steel™: Made of certified COR-TEN™ steel that is meant to rust, but only on the surface. The process is really fun to watch! A standard 8 ft. rain chain in Weathered COR-TEN™ steel weighs 11 lbs. 

Patina: Made of pure aluminum, with a deep blue patina applied by hand. No two chains are exactly alike and they'll darken somewhat with time.

To prevent damage in transit and reduce packaging volume, the upper wires are shipped separately from the cups, so some assembly is required. Each rain chain comes with a matching v-hook. The v-hook sits inside the gutter opening to hold the rain chain in place.

Installation Tip:

The connecting wires have threaded end nuts. We recommend dabbing a small amount of Loctite® Blue adhesive on each end nut to prevent them from unfastening. Available at any hardware or home improvement store. Click Here for cup assembly instructions.

Beautiful and high quality

After lots of research we purchased from Nutshell due to their high quality and expertise. This is their specialty! Needed a 17 ft and a 12 ft and we connected the cups prior to the arrival of the installer. It takes a couple of hours depending on how many you are doing. Be sure to purchase the installation kit and stakes. (or pan). Call their customer service line for any advice -- super nice and helpful. We purchased the medium cup due to water volume and winter weather. You can DIY hanging if you have a tall enough ladder. Highly recommend this company!

Creative Chain in Installation

I can’t really fully review this product, but so far I want to say the customer service was excellent. We had an installation issue, and they worked with me to come up with a resolution and if that didn’t work, I could return the chain.
