This elegant and large wall fountain from Provence has been hand-carved from 23 pieces of French Estaillade limestone. The back wall consists of 11 stones, including two stones that make up the crown with thick ogee molding. A similar thick, raised molding has been carved onto the stones that comprise the wall, which also has cyma reversa moldings at the bottom. In the center (the middle stone of the third row) is a roughly circular complex of hand carved foliage and beading. A scrolled iron spout inserts into the center of the carving, allowing water to flow into the large rectangular basin made of seven stones. Five capstones overhang the basin beneath, mirroring the protruding molding at the bottom of the stones. With an overall rectilinear design, our French limestone wall fountain from Provence will work in a variety of landscape designs from traditional to contemporary.
