Antique French Copper Fountain Water Feature Villedieu Garden Set 0109245

French Copper Fountain

This antique water fountain originates from Villedieu-les-Poeles, the historic copper capital of Normandy, France. Dating from the early 20th century, this two-piece French copper fountain represents traditional metalworking techniques that have graced European gardens and courtyards for generations.

The fountain displays hand-hammered copper construction with embossed heraldic motifs featuring crowns and ornate scrollwork throughout. The aged copper exhibits warm amber patina tones characteristic of authentic period pieces. Relief work demonstrates master craftsmanship of French metalworkers. The basin features curved sides with integrated handles for positioning, while the water tank includes a fitted lid with wooden knob and brass spigot mechanism.

The water tank measures 31cm x 31.5cm x 13cm (12.25" x 12.5" x 5") while the basin measures 38cm x 27.5cm x 20cm (15" x 11" x 8"). The fountain shows age-appropriate patina and wear consistent with its century of age. Brass fittings and spigot components remain functional.

This French copper fountain would serve as a distinctive garden water feature or decorative element for collectors of French metalwork and architectural salvage pieces.
