Create a distinctive outdoor water feature with the Genova Fountain Kit - FNT3185. Measuring 18" wide x 25" high, this ceramic vase combines an upright profile with pronounced horizontal ribbing and warm orange-brown tones for an earthy, architectural look. Its hand-glazed character adds visual depth while the repeating ringed texture gives the fountain a style that feels equally at home in traditional gardens and more contemporary landscapes.
Designed as a complete outdoor vase fountain kit, the Genova pairs the decorative ceramic vase with the basin, pump, plumbing, lighting, automatic fill valve, water treatment, and polished pebbles needed to create a finished recirculating water feature. It is an easy way to bring moving water, visual interest, and a gentle bubbling water sound to an entryway, courtyard, garden bed, or other landscaped setting.

The Genova's horizontal ribbing gives the vase strong texture without making the design overly ornate. Water rises through the standpipe and returns over the vase into the concealed reservoir below, allowing the system to continuously recirculate its water. The included flow control valve provides a convenient way to adjust the water flow to suit the installation.
Blue Thumb prepares its ceramic vase fountain systems with installation convenience in mind. The vase is plumbed with a bulkhead fitting and standpipe assembly, while the system uses kink-free tubing and quick-disconnect connections between the vase and pump. The included submersible pump carries a 5-year warranty.
Five bags of polished pebbles complete the installation around the basin, with Black or Mixed Pebbles available as selectable options. The result is a finished landscape fountain that keeps the mechanical components below the decorative surface while allowing the vase and moving water to remain the focal point.
