Black Marble Chiseled Block Fountain

Bring a little of the desert's calm to a patio, courtyard or entry with this one-of-a-kind Black Marble Chiseled Block Fountain, a compact piece hand-selected for its deep espresso color and rugged hand-chiseled faces. Measuring 17 inches tall, 9 inches wide and 10 inches deep at roughly 121 pounds, the block is worked by hand on every side so the stone catches light in rough, shadowed ridges, with the water rising from the top and running down the textured faces. The fountain in the photos is the exact piece that will arrive at your home.

Black marble is limestone that was buried, heated and recrystallized deep in the earth, and its dark color comes from organic carbon sealed inside the stone. Water brings it to life! As it runs over the chiseled faces the espresso brown turns to a glossy near-black and every ridge and hollow lights up with movement, and when the pump is off the block dries back to a quiet, matte sculpture. Small enough for an intimate seating area and heavy enough to feel permanent, it is a natural starting point for a first fountain.

Imagine unwinding after a long day to the gentle sound of water trickling over stone, or welcoming guests to a patio that feels cooler and calmer the moment they step outside. A natural stone fountain is a tranquil oasis and a sculpture in one, beautiful whether the water is running or still, and marble only ages more gracefully under the Arizona sun. It is the centerpiece your yard has been missing.

This fountain is sold as the stone only and pairs with a below-ground basin, pump, plumbing and installation, which we size to the piece and to your space.
