Bringing Gardens to Life: A Birdbath Design Guide
Classical garden elements offer a beautiful way to personalize and enhance gardens throughout the seasons. Among the most timeless of these features are birdbaths and small fountains, both of which have graced gardens for centuries. Whether nestled among a colorful flower bed, placed along a garden path, or incorporated into an intimate courtyard, these water features bring elegance, character, and the soothing presence of water to the landscape.
View our guide to birdbaths to learn more about the different designs offered in our Estate Elements collection of garden elements.
The Beauty of Birdbaths
Birdbaths are characterized by an inviting ambiance and serve as beautiful decorative pieces in smaller garden areas. They are a natural way to attract a diverse array of small birds to cool off and refresh during summer days, or to simply enhance your outdoor landscape with visual interest and a personal touch of character.
Birdbaths are ideal for:
- Garden courtyards
- Patios and terraces
- Poolside seating areas
- Memorial gardens
- Residential landscapes of every size
Classic Birdbath with Copper Drip
Our Classic Birdbath offers beautiful details made of natural cast stone to seamlessly blend into any landscape. A copper drip can also be connected to allow for water replenishment.
Boy Holding Shell With Birds
Our Boy Holding Shell With Birds is complete with lead birds perched on edge and made of natural lead. The figure can be adorned with wings as well. The finished piece weighs about 140 pounds at 30" high.
Birdbath with Spiral Pedestal
Our beautiful cast stone Birdbath with Spiral Pedestal is a great addition to any garden setting. The whimsical scalloped design bowl allows for a perfect perch for birds while adding an artistic focal point to the garden.
Corinthian Birdbath
The Corinthian Birdbath is an aluminum piece with beautiful details on the wide octagonal base. We are also able to customize by adding lead birds on the edges of the fountain basin for a whimsical effect.
Four Frogs Birdbath
The Four Frogs Birdbath is one of our most popular due to the spouting element of the four frogs that sit along the edges of the beautifully curved bowl. The bowl can also be placed on top of other natural lead columns for a different desired design or height.
Classic Large Birdbath
This Classic Large Birdbath includes all of the classic Italian carving details. The underside of the bowl is ornamented with an acanthus leaf design, as is the base of the pedestal, while the gentle fluting of the column adds to the symmetry. Made of natural cast stone, this birdbath sits at 36" high.
Lotus Birdbath
Our beautifully designed Lotus Birdbath is our most intricate design, complete with sculpted leaves that allow water to trickle into the basin below and gather in shallow pools - perfect for birds to perch and drink.
