Aqua Moda Miren / Natural Basalt

Miren Basalt Slab & Plinth Water Feature

A compact natural basalt water feature combining a broad polished slab with a raised solid-stone plinth.

At approximately 45–50cm across and 21cm high overall, the Miren Slab & Plinth delivers the character of genuine volcanic stone in a compact format that works particularly well on patios, within planted borders and smaller landscaped spaces.

Water bubbles gently from the centre of the polished upper surface before spreading across the slab and cascading over its naturally rugged edges. The raised basalt plinth lifts the slab above the surrounding pebble area, making the falling water easier to see and creating a more noticeable trickling sound.

As the basalt becomes wet, its charcoal, black and subtle brown tones deepen considerably, bringing out natural detail that can be less visible when the stone is dry.

Why choose the Miren Slab & Plinth?

A broader water surface with greater height and presence.

The broad slab gives the water room to spread, while the raised plinth creates a more visible cascade without requiring a large footprint.

01 / BROAD SLAB

More surface for moving water

The polished basalt slab creates a wide, shallow area of moving water before it reaches the naturally irregular outer edges.

02 / RAISED CASCADE

Water is easier to see

The solid-stone plinth lifts the slab above the pebble area, giving the falling water more space and creating a more visible cascade.

03 / COMPACT PRESENCE

Approximately 21cm high

The raised design gives this compact Miren more visual presence than a flatter babbling stone of a similar width.

Raised for a better cascade

More height changes the character of the water.

The basalt plinth is more than a decorative addition. By lifting the slab above the surrounding pebble area, it creates a greater drop as water leaves the natural edges.

This makes the individual streams easier to see and enhances the gentle trickling sound as water falls back towards the concealed reservoir below.

Once decorative pebbles are arranged around the base, much of the plinth can be integrated into the surrounding landscape, allowing the broad slab to appear naturally raised above the surface.

Gentle central bubbling Water rises onto the centre of the broad polished slab.

Wide moving surface Water spreads across the polished basalt before reaching the edge.

Raised natural cascade The plinth gives the falling water a greater visible drop.

More noticeable sound The additional height enhances the gentle natural trickle.

Natural basalt

Genuine volcanic stone transformed by water.

Basalt is a dense volcanic stone with naturally occurring variations in shape, colour, markings and edge profile.

When dry, the stone displays softer grey and charcoal tones. Once water begins flowing, the basalt becomes considerably darker and richer, creating a striking contrast between the smooth polished upper surface and naturally rugged sides.

The broad slab provides plenty of surface area for the water to move across, creating constantly changing reflections before it reaches the irregular outer edge.

Every stone is unique

Exact shape, dimensions, markings, edge profile and colour will vary slightly between individual pieces. These natural differences are part of the character of genuine basalt.

Seamless in-ground installation

Hide the functional parts beneath the garden.

The supplied 70cm heavy-duty reservoir is designed to be buried below ground, leaving only the basalt slab, stone plinth and your chosen decorative finish visible.

Prepare

Choose a firm, level position with access to a suitable outdoor electrical supply.

Excavate

Dig a suitable hole for the supplied 70cm heavy-duty reservoir.

Position

Install the reservoir securely and level, with the upper edge slightly above the surrounding soil level.

Install the pump

Position the pump inside the reservoir and connect the water pipe through the drilled plinth to the slab above.

Fit the grid

Position the heavy-duty galvanised steel support grid securely over the reservoir.

Position the feature

Carefully position the basalt plinth and slab centrally over the supported section of grid.

Add the lighting

Position the supplied LED light to illuminate the moving water and wet basalt surface.

Finish

Cover the visible grid with decorative pebbles while retaining access through the grid hatch for pump maintenance.

Fill & enjoy

Fill the reservoir and switch on the pump. Water spreads across the slab and cascades back into the hidden reservoir.

Complete water feature kit

Supplied with the components needed to create the raised water effect.

The Miren Basalt Slab & Plinth is supplied as a complete, self-contained recirculating water feature system.

Natural Basalt Slab Approx. 45–50cm broad polished slab with naturally rugged edges.

Natural Basalt Plinth Solid-stone raised base creating an overall height of approximately 21cm.

70cm Reservoir Heavy-duty underground reservoir designed to sit beneath the garden surface.

Support Grid with Hatch Heavy-duty galvanised steel grid with access hatch for future maintenance.

Suitable Water Pump Recirculating water pump supplied with a 10m cable.

LED Light Illuminates the moving water and wet basalt after dark.

Pipe & Connections Water pipe and required connections for the complete system.

Decorative pebbles are available separately, allowing you to completely conceal the reservoir and coordinate the finished installation with your garden.

Compact size, greater presence

A raised statement without a large footprint.

At approximately 45–50cm across, this Miren remains easy to integrate into smaller patios, planted borders and gravel gardens.

The raised plinth gives it considerably more presence than a flat babbling stone of a similar diameter, while the approximately 21cm overall height makes the cascading water easier to appreciate from nearby seating areas.

Its combination of rugged natural edges and a highly polished upper surface allows it to work equally well within traditional planting or more contemporary landscaping.
