This monumental Italian wall fountain was hand-carved in verona rossa marble in the early 1900’s.

The front façade has a stylized coat of arms consisting of a shaped shield emblazoned with a fleur de lys. Inside the basin, the back wall has been carved with a pair of volute C-scrolls surrounding bundled leaves. At the base of the leaves is a small drainage hole.

It could also be used as a large sink...
