Dealers in authentic antique limestone fountains.

At Ancient Surfaces we are committed to preserving the elegance and history of architectural antiquity. We source, reclaim and conserve antique limestone pool fountains and garden fountains, then sell them on to the pools and gardens being built today, turning water features carved generations ago into the quiet centre of a new landscape. A pool deserves a centrepiece with something behind it.

Our specialists source reclaimed limestone fountains of every character. Wall fountains with carved lion masks and scrolled brackets, pedestal fountains with tiered bowls, rustic dry stacked basins, and plain octagonal pools where the stone does all the talking. Each limestone fountain is cleaned, stabilised and conserved with respect for the patina it arrived with. We are careful never to restore that away.

Ancient Surfaces has appeared on the front covers of Architectural Digest in May 2011 and LUX Magazine in November 2012, which says something about how our limestone fountains and architectural antiques are regarded within the design world.

We sell antique limestone pool fountains to private residences across Manhattan, Jersey City and Newark, and to projects nationwide and overseas that are after genuine historical elegance. Every piece is crated by specialist stone handlers and delivered worldwide. Prices are given on request, because each fountain is one of one and the delivered cost depends on where it is going.
