Northcote Pottery - Solara Urn Fountain

Northcote Pottery - Solara Urn Fountain

Create a breathtaking, majestic centrepiece in your garden with the grand Northcote Pottery Solara Urn Fountain. Standing at an impressive 140cm tall, this premium, high-stature water feature is designed to bring an air of luxury, structure, and sensory calm to expansive Australian outdoor spaces. The classic, beautifully proportioned urn design features water that gently wells up at the crown and cascades down the textured curves of the urn, producing a rich, soothing sound of running water that easily masks unwanted neighbourhood noise and fosters a tranquil backyard retreat.

Crafted to offer the imposing, dramatic presence of traditional solid stone or cast bronze without the extreme weight, the Solara is engineered from a high-performance, lightweight composite material. This makes positioning and seasonal cleaning of this substantial 140cm feature manageable, while offering outstanding resistance against cracking, UV fade, and seasonal Australian weather conditions. Finished in a rich, multi-toned metallic bronze, the urn displays gorgeous highlights and depth under natural sunlight. A warm, energy-efficient LED light is integrated at the very top of the fountain, casting a shimmering, beautiful glow over the water as it bubbles from the source, ensuring your garden is illuminated with an elegant, inviting atmosphere throughout the evening.

Important Note on Availability & Shipping

Our warehouse serves as our office and logistics centre rather than a retail showroom. Because we ship from multiple locations and manage high-turnover stock, not all items are available for immediate pickup.

Lead Times:

• In-Stock Items: Usually ready for dispatch the same day.
• Supplier-Dependent Items: Usually take 2–8 weeks to arrive, depending on supplier availability. Products from Adloheat may take 4–12 weeks depending on the order—they are custom made to order in Pakenham, VIC.

While we strive for fast delivery, some timelines are subject to supplier availability and are beyond our control. We appreciate your patience as we source the best quality gear for your project.

• Potting Mixes cannot be shipped to Western Australia (WA), the Northern Territory (NT), or Tasmania (TAS).
• Seeds cannot be shipped to Western Australia (WA).

Orders placed for these items to restricted states will be cancelled and refunded. It is the customer's responsibility to ensure that the items being ordered can lawfully be delivered to their state or territory.
