In the past, rain gutters were hidden in the shadows. But rain chains are different. They are functional art that guides water while making rainy days look beautiful.
On rainy days, the water creates a scene. On sunny days, the chain shapes the look of your building. This is the charm of a rain chain: it connects architecture and nature quietly.
At Seo Rain Chain, we offer two design directions: "Floating Functionality" and "Inspired by Japanese Scenery." Each style shows a different relationship between rain and architecture.
This style uses a special core and stainless steel rod inside. Rain flows quietly down this rod, acting as a single path from top to bottom. The rain cups link together to support the whole structure.
When water flows, it merges with the core. It looks like the water is floating in the air. It looks light and delicate, but it collects water efficiently.
This design also stops splashing, keeping your walls and plants clean. We also offer an "L Size" with a large chain link capacity for heavy rain areas. It is a great choice for your first rain chain.

lengths of tube—long, medium, and short—connect in a random pattern.
