Carved from a single block of Black Flower Granite, the Artisan Almond Fountain brings sculptural weight and natural variation to any landscape. Its flattened almond silhouette reads as modern art from the front and slips neatly into tighter spaces from the side, making it equally at home in a courtyard entry, a patio corner, or a garden bed.
Black Flower Granite is prized for its deep charcoal and black tones, interrupted by soft smoky drifts and natural white-to-ivory veining that runs across every piece. When the fountain is running, water rises from a recessed opening at the top and sheets gently down the polished faces, darkening the stone and bringing the veining into sharp contrast for a wet-stone look that shifts with the light.
Because real granite is never uniform, no two fountains share the same color balance, veining pattern, or surface texture. Each piece is a one-of-a-kind natural stone sculpture.

Why This Fountain
The Artisan Almond Fountain works where you want the presence of real stone without a towering profile. Its 30-inch height and flattened shape make it a natural fit for entry landscapes, patio edges, and garden islands where a round or tall fountain would crowd the space. The dark granite reads as grounded and architectural against greenery, gravel, or hardscape, and the white veining gives it a quiet dynamism that changes as water moves over the surface.
Optional upgrades available from Blue Thumb include an IllumiGlow color-changing plume light kit for nighttime impact, a basin auto-fill kit to reduce manual refilling, and a fountain water treatment to keep the water clear.
