Granite Fountains

Its strength, durability and smooth finish make granite a preferable choice for fountains. It's harder than marble, and allows immense possibilities for intricate and exquisite carving. Granite can withstand the elements, and is resistant to chipping and breaking which makes it a perfect material for outdoor fountains. The beauty of a granite fountain lies in its smooth polished finish, unmatched by most fountain materials.

A granite fountain is especially suited to an Asian inspired garden or courtyard theme. It's also ideal for colder climates unlike marble which is porous and better suited to exterior use in warmer climates.

Creating a Granite fountain

As in the case of stone, granite is chiseled and carved into the desired shape. Unwanted blocks are cut away, and the statuary is chipped at till it takes form. It is then polished to its distinctively shiny high gloss finish.

Granite is also low on maintenance which makes it perfect for large outdoor architectural fountains where a daily cleaning and maintenance routine may not always be feasible. It's also the longest lasting of fountain materials, and you can expect your granite fountain to last many many lifetimes!
