Product Spotlight: Tiered Garden Fountains

When you think of a grand, elegant garden fountain, what's the first thing that springs to mind? More than likely, it's a traditional tiered fountain. Tiered garden fountains feature at least two separate 'basins' that catch the flow of water that typically comes from the top of the fountain. In most tiered fountain designs, water overflows from the top basin into the next until it gets to the bottom basin where the fountain pump is located. The water is then pumped back up to the top of the fountain.

Tiered garden fountains are a beautiful way to bring the sparkling vitality of flowing water to your outdoor space. They're available in a wide range of colors, styles, price points and materials including granite, cast stone, copper, ceramic and lightweight materials like fiberglass composite. Tiered fountains can be small and casual or large and bold. The Tiered Garden Fountains category at KineticFountains.com offers a great variety of tiered outdoor fountains so you can find the one that's just right for your yard.

Copper Cascade Solar Fountain - The design of this solar powered fountain turns the idea of 'tiered fountains' on its head with the way the tiers swivel to the side before pouring into the main basin below. The vase at the top of the fountain acts as the fountainhead, pouring water forth into the copper tiers. The Copper Cascade Solar Fountain shows how tiered fountains can be casual and fun, and small enough for limited outdoor spaces such as balconies and itty bitty townhouse backyards.
