A Spanish or Italian fountain adorned with vibrant ornamental tiles will pop against your shrubbery and concrete planters. Glazed ceramic fountains, which also warrant regular cleaning to reduce buildup of debris and mineral deposits, will add a splash of color to your garden or entryway. A limestone fountain will need to be cleaned out and undergo a water change on occasion - at least every two to four months - in order to prevent algae growth as well as the smell that might accompany it. While limestone fountains are low maintenance, these features will require upkeep. If you’ve already adorned your garden or patio and firepit area with Roman statues, this will feel cohesive in your outdoor space. Limestone, a component of concrete, is a dense rock with a creamy white finish that calls to mind classical sculptures. Cast concrete lends a classical look to your outdoor fountain. The distressed cream finish is great for industrially themed living spaces. Interior and exterior fountains are made from a variety of materials. Hang from the ceiling or place on a table using metal hooks, and you can use this bird cage to display flowers, a garland, or scented pillar candles for a vintage aesthetic.
If you’re looking to ensure that there is steadily bubbling water, a slow trickle, a waterfall or cascading sheets of water, you’ll want to think about the architecture of your fountain.
Whether your new addition is a simple bowl-shaped design, an elaborate wall-mounted Art Deco fountain or a classical tiered tower boasting decoratively carved floral motifs, this will determine the movement of the feature’s water as well as the sounds it makes. The design of your outdoor fountain - or the indoor fountain you’ve introduced to your parlor - is going to determine how the water flows into its basin. Adding antique and vintage fountains to your home and garden is a great way to accentuate your interiors or landscape design as well as reap the benefits of the calming sound of flowing water.
