Lion Head Concrete Fountain with Three Tiers
Give the Entrance a Clear Center
As guests follow the driveway or entry walk toward the house, water moving from lion head spouts at three different heights gives them a clear place to look. At 52 inches tall, this lion head fountain can stand in a wide front yard, courtyard entrance, or large planting bed without disappearing behind the surrounding shrubs.
This is not a fountain to hide in a corner. Place it at a driveway turn, at the end of an entry walk, in front of a stone wall, or in the center of a courtyard. The lion head spouts, three rising bowls, and visible streams give an open or unfinished space a defined center.
Water leaves the lion mouths and falls into the bowls below, creating several clear streams at different heights. The included recirculating pump lets you adjust the flow for the size of the space and the distance from nearby seating. It connects to a standard 110V outdoor outlet, with no permanent plumbing required.
Why Choose This Lion Head Fountain
- The ornament is part of the water flow. The lion heads are not simply surface decoration. Water moves directly from the mouths, giving every level a visible starting point and a clear stream into the bowl below.
- Made for wider sightlines. The 52 inch height and three rising bowls work well where the fountain needs to be seen across a front lawn, from the end of a driveway, or through the entrance to a courtyard.
- Adjust the flow for the space. Use a gentler setting when seating is close to the fountain. Increase the flow when the fountain sits farther from a porch, patio, or main viewing point.
- A natural fit with masonry and formal planting. The design suits traditional courtyards, European inspired gardens, symmetrical planting beds, brick walls, natural stone, and broad entry walks.
- Choose it when the fountain should be noticed. This model is best for a buyer who wants water to define the entrance or center of the garden. It may be less suited to a narrow patio or a small water feature meant to remain in the background.

Planning and Care
Where does this fountain work best?
Place it at a driveway turn, at the end of an entry walk, in the center of a formal courtyard, inside a wide planting bed, or in front of a stone wall. Check the view from the main approach so all three bowls and the lion head spouts remain easy to see.
Keep taller plants and outdoor furniture from blocking the middle and lower spouts. Brick walls, stone paving, and enclosed courtyards may also make the water sound more noticeable.
How should it be placed around children or pets?
Place the fountain inside a planting area, at the edge of the lawn, or outside the main walking and running paths. Route the power cord along a wall, garden bed, or another area where it is less likely to be stepped on.
Do not allow children or pets to climb on the fountain. The recirculating water is not intended for drinking.
What does setup require?
Place the fountain on a level, stable surface that can support the concrete pieces. Because the parts are heavy, at least two adults should handle positioning and assembly.
After assembly, fill the bowls and connect the included pump. Check that every tier is level before increasing the flow. If one side flows differently, check the water level and fountain position before turning the pump higher.
How should the water flow be adjusted?
Begin with a lower pump setting and watch the streams from each lion head. Increase the flow gradually until the water falls cleanly into the bowls below.
Use a gentler flow when the fountain is close to a porch or seating area. Increase it when the fountain is farther from the main viewing point. If splashing becomes excessive, lower the flow and confirm that every tier is level.
What does the water sound like?
Water falls from lion head spouts at several heights, creating multiple continuous landing sounds in the bowls below. The separate streams are easy to hear nearby and blend into a steady background sound from farther away.
The perceived volume changes with pump flow, water level, placement, and surrounding surfaces. For that reason, a fixed decibel rating would not give a reliable picture of how it will sound in every yard.
How should it be cared for during the year?
During regular use, keep enough water in the fountain to cover the pump and prevent it from running dry. Check the lion head openings and clean away leaves, dirt, and mineral buildup that could affect the streams.
Before freezing weather, disconnect and store the pump and drain standing water from every bowl and water passage. Protect the fountain for local winter conditions. Do not leave water inside the fountain where it can freeze.
Does this fountain include a warranty?
This product includes a 3 year warranty. Exact coverage, claim requirements, and required documents are subject to the warranty policy that applies at the time of purchase.
Keep your order confirmation and purchase information. If service is needed, contact customer support with your order details, a description of the issue, and relevant photos or videos.
A garden can be beautiful and still feel like it is beside a road.
Planting fixes what you see. It does very little about what you hear. That is the gap a fountain fills, and it is the reason most people end up wanting one.
It gives your ear somewhere nearer
Traffic, a neighbour's air conditioner, a road two streets over. A fountain does not cancel any of it. It puts a closer, steadier sound in front, and the far ones stop being the thing you notice.
Moving water stays clean longer
Mosquitoes need water that sits undisturbed for days on end. A pump keeps the surface turning over, so that never gets a chance, and the film that forms on standing water is slower to arrive.
Birds hear it before they see it
A still basin has to be found. Moving water carries, and it pulls in birds that would have passed the garden by.
The drop decides the sound.
A fountain makes its sound where the water lands, not where it leaves the spout. A short fall into a shallow bowl reads as a trickle you only notice when the garden goes quiet. A longer fall into open water is fuller, and it carries across a patio.
How much sound you end up with is not a number we can print. It shifts with the water level and with what stands behind the piece. Each fountain has its own description of what it sounds like, further down this page.
Water held against a surface never lands. Where it runs down ribbing or stone instead of falling free, it stays quiet the whole way.
A wall behind it reflects the sound and makes it read louder. Open planting softens it.
The water level changes it too. A low basin sounds different from a full one, which is why a decibel figure would tell you nothing about your own garden.
It plugs into a normal outlet. That is the whole electrical job.
No plumbing, nothing to bury, no electrician. The pump sits in the basin and the cord leaves from the base. What is worth thinking about before it arrives is where that cord is going to run.
Measure to the nearest outdoor outlet first. Cord length is listed in the specifications for each piece, and it decides where the fountain can actually go.
Run it along a bed edge, not across the lawn. Under planting or beside a path it disappears, and it is not something anyone will catch a foot on.
If you extend it, use an outdoor lead and a weatherproof cover. An indoor extension left in a border is the one shortcut worth not taking.
It is meant to run continuously. The pump uses very little, and starting and stopping it does more harm than leaving it on.
Fill it, plug it in, done.
No plumbing, nothing to bury, no electrician. Two people and a level patch of ground is the whole requirement, and it is up and running the same afternoon it arrives.
Unbox it where it will stand
These are heavy. Cut the box open in the spot you have chosen rather than carrying the pieces across the garden.
Set it level
A tilted piece sends the whole flow down one edge instead of spreading it. A paving slab under the base fixes soft or sloping ground.
Sit the pump in the basin
It sits on the floor of the base, not clipped to anything. Bring the cord out through the opening at the back and away toward the outlet.
Fill until the pump is covered, then plug in
Fill first and plug in second, every time. A pump switched on in an empty basin can be damaged in seconds.
The one rule worth remembering
The pump has to stay under water. Everything else on this page is preference, but a pump that runs dry is a pump you replace. In warm weather a basin can drop below the line in a few days, so top it up before it gets close rather than after.
Three habits, and the pump outlasts the warranty.
A fountain asks for more attention than a bird bath, but not much more. Almost everything that goes wrong traces back to one of three things: the level dropped, the intake blocked, or water was left in it through a freeze.
Top it up whenever the level drops. The pump has to stay covered. This is the habit that matters more than the other two put together.
Rinse the pump every few months, and wipe mineral film off the surfaces the water runs over before it sets. A brush and a minute is the whole job.
Drain it before the first hard freeze and store the pump dry indoors. Water left to freeze and thaw is what does the damage, not the cold itself.
