Massarelli's Lion Head Fountain

No, this is a self-contained system. It recirculates water internally, so you only need a standard outdoor electrical outlet to plug in the included pump.

Because water flows from multiple lion heads into two tiers, it creates a robust, consistent splash. It is specifically designed to generate enough ambient sound to effectively mask moderate background noise like traffic.

Massarelli's finishes are designed to weather and patina naturally when exposed to the elements. This process adds character and depth to the stone, meaning the fountain will evolve in appearance the longer it stays outside.

Because the fountain weighs 427 pounds, it requires a solid, level surface like a concrete patio, stone pavers, or a reinforced deck. Placing it on soft ground or uneven surfaces can cause the fountain to shift or tilt over time.

The pump is housed inside a dedicated concrete compartment designed to blend into the fountain's base. You can easily access this 'pump house' to clean the filter or adjust the flow rate without needing to disassemble the entire structure.

Each piece is unique. Because these are handcrafted from cast stone concrete, you should expect slight variations in texture, color, and finish, which are hallmarks of the artisanal process rather than defects.
