Grand Antique Carved Portland Stone Fountain
About the Item
A grand antique mid 19th century hand-carved Portland stone fountain with intwined fish. Previously a fountain from the grounds of the Royal Observatory, in London, its large scale and unusual design would certainly make a brilliant new addition to any property.
