Tuscany Vase Fountain Kit - FNT3871

Bring a warm, handcrafted focal point to a garden, patio area, courtyard, or entryway with the Tuscany Fountain Kit - FNT3871. This single-vase outdoor water feature pairs a tall, gently tapered ceramic form with rounded shoulders and a substantial rolled rim. Its softly varied pale cream and sandy-beige glaze is layered with muted blue-gray and blue-green vertical streaking, scattered rustic brown accents, and a deep reddish-brown rim, giving the fountain an earthy, weathered character.

Water rises from the center of the vase in a bubbling plume before recirculating through the basin reservoir below. The complete system combines the decorative vase with the pump, reservoir, lighting, plumbing, water-level support, treatment products, and polished pebbles needed to create a finished installation.

Why Choose This Fountain?

The FNT3871 offers the visual presence of a substantial ceramic urn while maintaining a footprint that can work in many residential or commercial landscape designs. Its broad shoulder, narrower base, and contrasting rim create a balanced silhouette, while the uneven glaze and natural color variation provide the individual character associated with hand-finished ceramic vase fountains.

Its pale cream and sandy neutral tones make the vase easy to coordinate with natural stone, warm hardscaping, greenery, and a variety of architectural styles. Weathered blue-gray and blue-green streaking adds depth to the finish, while the darker rim and scattered brown accents give the fountain a grounded, rustic appearance.

Blue Thumb drills, inspects, and pre-plumbs its fountain vases to make the connection between the vase, pump, and reservoir more straightforward. The included Achelous basin stores and recirculates the water, while the flow control valve lets you adjust the display to suit the setting. The installed LED fountain lighting adds evening visibility, and the automatic fill valve can reduce frequent manual top-offs when connected and adjusted correctly.

Frequently Asked Questions

What comes in the kit?

The kit includes the ceramic vase, 36-inch Achelous basin, 800 GPH pump, installed LED light, plumbing and flow-control components, quick-connect tubing, automatic fill valve, water treatment kit, and four bags of polished pebbles.

How difficult is installation?

Blue Thumb fountain kits are designed with pre-plumbed components and quick connections to simplify setup. Smaller fountain installations may be completed in a few hours, but site preparation, access, and the finished surface can affect the total time.

Does the fountain need plumbing?

The pump recirculates water between the vase and basin, so a continuously running household water connection is not required. The included automatic fill valve requires an appropriate water supply connection when that feature is used.

How often will I need to add water?

The automatic fill valve can help maintain the water level when properly installed. Regular water-level checks are still recommended because evaporation, wind, and splash can affect water loss.

Can this fountain be installed near a patio or entryway?

Yes, provided the location has a stable, level installation area, suitable electrical access, and enough room for the 36-inch basin. Patio installations may require additional planning to properly support and conceal the reservoir.

Is lighting included?

Yes. An LED light is installed on the standpipe to illuminate the plume of water.

What should I do during winter?

In freezing climates, winterize the fountain before sustained freezing weather. Drain exposed water, remove or protect the pump, and follow Blue Thumb and product care instructions for the vase, plumbing, and basin.

What maintenance is required?

Check the water level, remove debris, inspect and clean the pump as needed, and keep the basin and plumbing clear. Use the included treatment products according to their label directions, and explore additional fountain water treatments for ongoing care.
