Product Description
URN OUTDOOR WATER FOUNTAIN
Three and a Half Feet on Barely One Foot of Floor
Five clay urns stacked on a stone plinth, each one carved with geometric banding, zigzags and stripes cut into the terracotta surface rather than painted on it. The top urn tips forward and pours into the one below, and the water works down through all five. At 42.5 inches tall on a 13.7 by 12.9 inch base, this is the most footprint efficient piece in the pottery series.
That ratio is the practical argument. Three and a half feet of vertical presence on barely a square foot of floor means it goes where a tiered fountain cannot. A narrow side return, the strip between a path and a fence, a balcony corner, the gap beside a doorway. If the problem you are solving is height without floor space, the proportions here are doing exactly that job.
One detail worth knowing before you buy. There are four lights and they sit in the lower urns only. The top urn is unlit. After dark the piece glows from the bottom up with the highest vessel reading as a dark silhouette above the light, which is a deliberate effect rather than an omission, but it does mean the top of the fountain disappears at night.

What Makes This Fountain Different
- Height to footprint is the whole proposition. Three and a half feet standing on 13.7 by 12.9 inches is an unusual ratio. Tiered bowl fountains of the same height need two to three times the floor because the lower bowl has to be wide enough to catch everything above it. A stacked urn design catches water inside each vessel instead, so the base never needs to grow. That is what lets it work in a side return, on a balcony, or in the gap beside a door where nothing else this tall will fit.
- Carved banding, not printed pattern. The geometric detail is cut into the surface, so it holds shadow and reads as worked pottery from a few feet away. Applied patterns flatten out at any distance.
- Light from the bottom four only. Four LEDs in the lower urns and nothing in the top one. The piece lights from the base upward and the highest vessel stands dark above the glow. Worth knowing so it is a choice rather than a surprise.
- Thirty pounds, and rated for indoors. Light enough for one person to reposition, and rated for both indoor and outdoor use, so an entryway or a sunroom corner is a real option.
What the water sounds like
A stepped trickle rather than a cascade. Five short falls between urns, each landing into standing water inside a vessel rather than onto an open surface, which muffles the arrival and keeps the sound close. It suits a doorway, a balcony, or a narrow side space where you pass within a few feet of it, and it will not carry across a garden. How loud it seems will still shift with the water level and whether it sits against a wall, which is why a fixed decibel number would tell you nothing useful about your own space.

Setup, Care, and Warranty
Setup and placement
Fill it, plug it in, done. No plumbing and nothing to bury. At 30.8 pounds one person can manage it, though the height makes a second pair of hands easier.
Level it before filling. On a stacked urn design an out of plumb base sends water over the rim of a vessel instead of into the next one, and on five tiers that compounds all the way down.
Water level and daily care
Keep enough water in the base to cover the pump so it never runs dry. Five open vessels lose water to evaporation faster than a closed reservoir, and a narrow base holds less to begin with, so check every few days in warm weather rather than weekly.
Clear debris from the urn rims. Anything on a lip sends the flow down the outside of the vessel rather than into the next one.
Looking after the carved finish
The carved banding is what makes this read as worked pottery, so wipe it with a soft cloth and keep harsh liquid cleaners and abrasives away from the grooves. In hard water areas a pale film settles into the carving where it is hardest to remove, so clean the wet areas before it builds rather than after.
Winter storage
Before freezing weather, drain every urn and the base completely, disconnect and store the pump, and dry the piece out. Water standing inside a vessel through a freeze and thaw is what damages stacked designs. At 30.8 pounds it comes indoors easily, which is the safest option.
3-year warranty

Questions Before You Choose
Which lights are on and which are not?
Four lights in the lower urns. The top urn has none. The effect after dark is a glow rising from the base with the highest vessel dark above it. If you were expecting the whole piece to light, this is worth knowing before you order rather than after.
Where does it fit that other fountains do not?
Narrow spaces. A side return, the strip between a path and a fence, a balcony corner, the gap beside a door. Three and a half feet of height on roughly one square foot of floor is a ratio that tiered bowl designs cannot match, because their lower bowl has to be wide enough to catch everything above it.
Is it real terracotta?
No. It is resin with a terracotta texture and carved banding. Real fired clay at this size would weigh several times as much, would need protecting from frost far more carefully, and would be considerably more fragile in transit. From a few feet away the surface reads as pottery.
Is it safe around children and pets?
At three and a half feet and 30.8 pounds this is tall relative to its weight and stands on a small base, so keep it out of the main running route and away from where a child could pull on an upper urn. Set it on a hard level surface rather than soft ground, and run the cord where it will not catch a foot. The recirculating water is not intended for drinking.
