The water fountain is a massive piece of art made out of 6 marble blocks carved with the CNC machine to the specified design. The bowl of the fountain is 7’0” in diameter made from one thick block of stone, specially ordered from the Vermont.. The fountain, from design to installation took around 3 months with careful inspection at every stage to achieve perfection. Once the machine carving was done, a hand carver fine-tuned all the surfaces and edges of the pieces. Then the pieces were sandblasted separately before assembling together.
