Metal Fountains

Metal fountains bring a timeless, crafted look to patios, courtyards, entryways, and garden beds. Our collection features hammered brass with hand-applied aqua and brown patinas, handmade copper trees and flowers, powder-coated cast iron, and stainless steel — materials that hold up outdoors and develop real character over time.

Most of these fountains are complete pondless kits. The fountain sits over a buried basin that stores and recirculates the water, so you get the sight and sound of moving water without building or maintaining a pond.

Styles of Metal Garden Fountains

• Copper tree and flower fountains — handmade in England with hand-cut copper leaves and hand-blown glass blossoms
• Urn fountains — tall round or tapered square brass urns with front spillways, as single urns or cascading triple sets
• Bowl fountains — wide reflection bowls and spouted spillway bowls, including two- and three-tier cascading designs
• Sugar kettle fountains — classic cast iron kettles that overflow evenly into a pebble bed
• Wall spouts — brass flower spouts and stainless steel scuppers for water walls and formal waterfalls

Understanding Patina Finishes

Brass and copper are living metals. Applied brass patinas typically start brighter and deepen to a richer, more weathered tone with continuous water use, and natural copper gradually develops its own patina. That gradual change is part of the appeal — no two pieces look exactly alike.

What's Included in a Complete Kit

Complete fountain kits generally include the metal fountain, a pump sized to the fountain, a reservoir basin, and plumbing. Some kits also include pebbles, an auto-fill valve, or an anti-splash mat — see each product page for the exact components.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will a metal fountain rust?
Brass, copper, and stainless steel do not rust the way plain steel does. Brass and copper change color over time by design, and powder-coated cast iron is finished to resist the elements. Check each product page for care details.

Do I need a pond?
No. Our metal fountain kits are pondless — a buried basin holds and recirculates the water beneath a bed of pebbles.

How do I winterize a copper fountain?
Never let water freeze inside copper tubing. In freezing climates, remove and store the copper sculpture and pump indoors.

Do metal fountains ship free?
These are large fountains, so shipping charges apply. Call us for a shipping quote before you order.
