"All Is Water"

Standing Statuary Fountains

 

 

Standing fountains are great because they are prefabricated, come in many shapes and sizes, and are made of various materials (e.g., concrete, aluminum, iron, bronze, fiberglass and plastic). 

What follows is a photo gallery of standing fountains from local sources. Each image can be clicked on for a larger view.

(Figure 1)

This piece combines the shell motif with the classic lion head, while the base has almost an art deco feel. (Tripp's)

(Figure 2)

This fountain has a modern and yet ageless beauty. It is a small version of the Mother Earth fountain at the Dixon Art Gallery. (Tripp's)

(Figure 3)

With lovely curves and a soft finish, this one reminds me of Arizona or New Mexico. (Tripp's)

(Figure 4)

This large fountain has a spray ring around the inside lip of the bowl which is adjustable. (Tripp's)

(Figure 5)

A pedestal like this one can be used to support a water feature or simply raise an object out of the water. The center is hollow and the top cap is removable. (Tripp's)

(Figure 6)

This pedestal is identical to the one on the left, but at another store. Notice the smaller ones in the background, and the more ornate one to the side. An urn would look nice on top. (Rachel's)

(Figure 7)

This fountain has a lot of style packed into its small size. Each lion head has a small fountain head in the mouth that spreads the water into a fan. (Rachel's) 

(Figure 8)

Here is a nice way to conserve space and dress up a bare wall. Too bad the fish to the left is not a water feature. (Rachel's)

 

(Figure 9)

This fountain looks even more massive with a rich dark finish. (Rachel's)

(Figure 10)

This delicate design incorporates an urn and lions. It could be placed on the ground or a pedestal. (Rachel's)

(Figure 11)

I like the strong design of this fountain but I'd like to see a 360 degree version. (Rachel's)

(Figure 12)

This represents a classic 3-tier fountain in a slim design. (Rachel's) 

(Figure 13)

Another classic 3-tier fountain with a pineapple replacing the original lady pouring water. (Private)

 

(Figure 14)

This pineapple has a hole through the center, but it still weighs a lot. (Private)
