CUSTOM BUILT WISHING WELLS
Let us build a wishing well for you in a style and color of your choosing. Our poly wishing wells have become very popular as they are constructed of a long-lasting maintenance free composite material which comes in many different colors and trims. This same material is used on our stone- based wishing wells, which have bases made of real river rock and mortar. Your wishing well will arrive fully assembled, ready to place in your lawn or garden. Please allow 3 to 5 weeks for delivery.
Do you know how wishing wells got their name? European folklore described wells where any
spoken wish would be granted. Water was seen as a source of life. It housed deities or was placed
there as a gift from God. Germanic and Celtic people considered wells as sacred places. To them,
water had healing powers and they believed that guardians watched over the wells. They also
believed that their wishes would be granted if they paid a price. This is where throwing coins into a
wishing well came from. The way the coins landed also played a part - if it landed heads up, then
the wish would be granted. If it landed tails up, their wish would be ignored. So now you know!
