Limestone wall fountain - Poisson I

Elegant garden wall fountain, hand made in our workshops located in Provence, from natural French limestone.

This handcrafted fountain is carved in the stone of Avy (a hard white limestone that is frost and salt resistant).
It consists of a moulded half-moon basin made of several massive stone elements. The curbs are slightly rounded, which gives them more depth. The narrow and slender pediment is very finely hand sculpted. An imposing but elegant cornice comes above it.

The originality behind this water fountain comes from its pediment. This wall presents a concave niche, and in its centre, a majestic sculpture of a fish, handmade by our stonemasons. On each side of this pediment can be seen carved windings, and on the top cornice, a hand sculpted shell.
The water flows gently through the mouth of the carved fish.
