158 Gallon Rain Barrel | Extra Large Terracotta Amphora

The Antique Amphora is a large decorative rain barrel styled after a Mediterranean terracotta urn. This amphora rain barrel holds 158 gallons (600 liters) and has a planter bowl built into the top, so it reads as a garden piece first and a water tank second.

Why a terracotta rain barrel?

Most rain barrels are built to be hidden. This one is built to be seen. If your downspout sits on a patio, beside an entry or in a front bed, a terracotta rain barrel lets you collect water without putting a plastic drum in view.

Enclosed design, no lid

The Antique Amphora is an enclosed barrel with no lid. A small outlet with a plug is where your downspout connects, so there is no open lid for rodents or insects to get into.

Connect it to your downspout

Add a diverter to route water from your gutter into the barrel:

• Rectangular downspout diverter kit (3x4 / 4x5)
• Round downspout diverter kit (4"–5")

Winter care

Empty the barrel before hard freezes, or leave the tap open so water can drain.

Colorado buyers: read this first

Colorado rain barrel law allows a single-family home, or a building with four or fewer units, to collect rooftop rainwater in up to two barrels holding 110 gallons combined, without a permit, for outdoor use on the same property. At 158 gallons, the Antique Amphora is over that limit on its own, so most Colorado homes can't use it as a rain barrel. It can still be used as a large decorative planter. Properties with a qualifying residential well may be able to collect more under separate rules. This is general information, not legal advice.
