The Colchis Fountain is a monument in the central square of Kutaisi in Georgia that celebrates the ancient kingdom of Colchis. It is adorned with 30 large-scale copies of the famous [gold](https://www.worldhistory.org/gold/) jewellery discovered at archaeological sites in Georgia, including the nearby Vani. The fountain was created by Georgian architect David Gogichaishvili and opened in May 2012.
