Add a light strip to a fountain and you get an illuminated fountain. Choose a stone the light can pass through, and you get something else entirely. In Revisage's Lightfountain collection, an adjustable pump paired with built-in lighting is close to standard equipment across the range - so the real point of difference between models sits one level down, in which stone receives that light, and how. The Lightfountain Onyx Marble Sunshine is built specifically around that question.
Onyx Marble Sunshine: a small object built around a rare stone
At 30cm total height - a 20cm column (10cm diameter) topped with a 22cm bowl, 10cm deep - the Lightfountain Onyx Marble Sunshine (from €545.00, roughly 5kg) is sized for a console table or a desk. Its hollow column and bowl are cut from polished onyx marble, a stone long valued in interior lighting design for a property most marble lacks: worked thin and polished, it lets a portion of light pass visibly through it, rather than only reflecting off the surface. The included pump-and-light combination, adjustable and wired with its own power supply, is standard - no separate lighting kit to source.
Sölker Marble Small: identical dimensions, a different stone entirely
The comparison writes itself, because the two products are built to the same footprint: the Lightfountain Sölker Marble Small (from €329.00, roughly 5kg) shares the Sunshine's exact dimensions - 30cm total height, 20cm column, 22cm bowl. The only real variable is the stone. Its column is ground rather than polished, and Austrian Sölker marble stays opaque under light rather than transmitting it - the illumination here settles on the surface, picking out the marble's own veining and mineral inclusions instead of making the stone glow from within. Across two otherwise near-identical objects, that €216 gap is largely the cost of the onyx itself.
Waterwall Magnifica: the same idea, built at wall scale
For the same Sölker marble logic applied not to a tabletop object but to a room-defining installation, there's the Waterwall Sölker Marble Magnifica (from €4,180.00), offered across six size variants - from 130cm tall at roughly 60kg up to 240cm tall at roughly 200kg, a jump in scale that turns the piece from an object into architecture. Its fully submerged Sölker marble water body carries a mirror-motif finish and three water outlets; two separate lighting units with their own power supply are included, run by a quiet, adjustable pump. Unlike the two tabletop models, the stone here isn't the point of light - the sheet of water crossing it is.
Three products, one shared premise: light, water and natural stone aren't paired here as separate features but engineered together from the start. Choosing between them comes down less to style than to a single question - should the stone carry the light, or become it.
