Know before you buy
No, the Victorian Dish Fountain is sold as the fountain structure only. You will need to purchase a separate basin and a compatible water circulation pump to complete the installation.
The fountain weighs 160 lbs. Because of its weight and lead construction, it should be placed on a level, stable surface, such as a reinforced patio, stone pad, or a properly prepared basin foundation.
Yes, lead is a traditional and highly durable material for garden statuary that withstands the elements exceptionally well. Over time, the lead will develop a natural, muted patina that enhances its 19th-century aesthetic.
The fountain measures 26 inches in diameter and stands 24 inches high. It features a 10-inch square base, which is the footprint you will need to accommodate within your chosen basin or mounting surface.
While the fountain itself is straightforward to position, the installation of the plumbing and pump system requires basic mechanical knowledge. If you are not comfortable setting up a water circulation system, we recommend consulting a professional landscaper or plumber.
