Reclaimed Limestone Fountain

A reclaimed stone fountain in limestone, with a faceted basin and a center column that carries lion heads and classical garlands in relief. The relief is still crisp where it has been sheltered and softer where rain has reached it. In sunlight the limestone moves between ivory, pale honey and a quiet gray, with small mineral freckles across the surface. The edges of the basin have been eased by weather rather than cut sharp, and the whole thing has the dry, chalky feel that stone takes on after years outdoors.

The fountain measures 82 inches across and stands 72 inches high. It is sold as stone, spout and basin; the pump and plumbing are by the installer. This is an antique fountain, so expect small chips and old staining; they are part of what we bought it for. Availability changes, so call before you plan around it.

It would center a formal garden, an entry courtyard where cars pull up, or the gravel court of a Mediterranean house. Run it low for a steady murmur or higher for a splash against the basin. A limestone fountain of this size travels by crane. Come and see this stone fountain in Marina Del Rey, or ask for more photographs and a delivered quote.
