Item no 730 An antique composition-stone fountain with a circular scalloped bowl on a leaf-cast column surrounded by three preening herons. The deeply indented bowl makes this a very effective fountain when working and an attractive centre-piece for a formal pool. Most surviving Victorian fountains are cast-iron but there were also specialist businesses making fountains in composition-stone during the 19th Century, and this is a rare surviving example. 2nd half 19th Century 31" diameter x 45" high SOLD
