One of the best ways to decorate your garden is by installing a fountain. You'll not only create a buzz with the unique artwork but also make it a center of attraction through the cascading waterfalls.

For many people, selecting the right fountain can be a problem, especially when deciding the materials to use. Luckily bronze is one of the best materials for a fountain due to its corrosion resistance capabilities.

With so many large bronze fountains available on the market today, you should be able to find one that works for you. The following are some of the fountain shapes available in the market today:

Cherub pairs

Sea nymphs

Embraced cherubs

Dolphins/fish/other sea creatures

Maiden figures

Spitting frogs

Giant tortoises

Urn-bearing maidens

It is up to you to pick a large bronze fountain that compliments the look of your garden. You may buy a piped bronze sculpture in a pond or pool or a complete, self-contained fountain. There are so many large bronze fountains you would be spoiled for choice.

Benefits of Large Bronze Fountains

You can gain many benefits from installing large bronze fountains in your garden. Here is a sample of the different ways these fountains can be beneficial to you:

1. Durability

Bronze, an alloy of copper, brass, and lead, is a durable material that effectively resists the elements. It can last for centuries when used outdoors on fountains.

It is corrosion-resistant and has a low melting point. When exposed to air and water, bronze develops a protective patina, making it challenging to get corroded.

Large bronze fountains are sturdy. The metal's toughness ensures the fountains remain standing for a long time.

2. Beautiful

Bronze fountains are beautiful. First, the metal's low melting point makes it possible to mold virtually any shape. The artist can also quickly produce detailed features that make the fountain stand out during the molding process.

In addition to its ease of moulding, bronze also develops a beautiful patina. The more it's exposed to rain, air, and other elements, the more its surface creates a patina.

It is a protective layer that allows the bronze fountain to resist further corrosion. The patina can be anything between line-green and dark brown.

3. High Resale Value

Bronze fountains are valuable when new. But it doesn't stop there, since the development of the patina increases its value with time. So, buying a bronze fountain is one of the best investments you can make if you're a collector.

Besides, a large bronze fountain in your garden increases your home's value. It makes your home more appealing to prospective buyers. Therefore, regardless of the price you state, you will likely get an interested buyer.

The Bottom Line

Installing a large bronze fountain in your garden is one of the best decisions you can make. Besides, there are several creations to pick from, so you won't struggle to find one. Furthermore, these fountains will likely last for many years.
