Rain chains were invented in Japan where they are commonly called “Kusari Doi”. Although they have been in use for hundreds of years, they are as popular today as when they originated and have traditionally been used on both private homes and temples. Rain Chains were introduced to the United States during the 1998 Winter Olympics which were hosted in Nagano, Japan.

Rain chains have gained popularity in the United States over the last decade as a substitute for traditional downspouts. Appreciated for their functional and aesthetic value, they are avidly recognized among homeowners, landscapers, garden enthusiasts, event planners and designers. The purpose of a rain chain is to direct the rainfall off the rooftop and away from the structure’s foundation in a graceful and beautiful manner.

In addition to being a decorative alternative to conventional downspouts, a rain chain can offer the added benefit of being an environmentally friendly/green product. At www.RainChains4Less.com all of the rain chains are made of 100% pure copper. Copper is the world’s ...
