Bring height, texture, and the relaxing movement of water into your landscape with the Amphora Fountain Kit. Measuring 20 inches wide by 36 inches high, this substantial ceramic vase has a tall, gently tapered profile with rounded shoulders, a thick rolled rim, and decorative handles that give it classic amphora character. Its softly mottled green glaze blends olive and earthy tones with subtle speckling and natural variation, creating a warm, handcrafted look that works beautifully among stone, greenery, and other outdoor materials.
This complete outdoor vase fountain kit pairs the ceramic vessel with the major components needed to create a finished recirculating water feature. Water rises through the center of the vase and returns to the concealed reservoir below, while the included flow-control valve allows the flow to be adjusted for the setting. The included LED light adds illumination at the water plume for added visual interest after dark.

The 36-inch-tall vase gives this fountain enough scale to anchor a landscaped bed, courtyard, entrance, or other outdoor focal area. Its muted green coloring pairs naturally with foliage while the darker mottling and decorative amphora details keep the design visually interesting up close.
The included 48-inch Achelous fountain basin reservoir stores the recirculating water below the finished surface, allowing the polished pebbles to conceal the basin and complete the disappearing-water effect. The included 1110 GPH mag-drive pump provides circulation through the fountain; additional fountain pumps and related equipment are also available from Blue Thumb when needed for other water-feature projects.
An LED light is already installed on the standpipe, giving the moving water added presence after sunset. Browse additional fountain lighting for other outdoor water-feature applications.
