Sandstone Fountain Basin with Scalloped Rim, 18th Century

Large oval sandstone fountain basin dating from the 18th century. The gracefully scalloped, shell-shaped rim gives the basin an elegant sculptural appearance. It rests on a roughly hewn rectangular stone block and displays a beautiful natural patina acquired over centuries of exposure. The original central water drain remains intact. An impressive architectural fragment and decorative garden feature, ideal for historic landscapes, courtyards, or classical garden settings.
