Get Vendio Gallery today!This is one of the most Elaborate and totally hand carved SOLID  Marble Fountains I have ever had produced.. It is Hand carved in the Orient from the best  Marble obtainable and from the Top Foundry with the Best Stone Cutters. This Giant work in Sculptured Art comes in at approx 20 feet high and has a diameter of approx 21 feet..It is Huge and takes up 2 complete 40 foot Full Size containers to get it shipped here to my facility in NY....It weighs approx 40 Tons. Suffice to say this Fountain will open anyone's eyes when it is placed. I noticed another seller on e bay offering same Fontain priced about 1/2 my price.I said Impossible to do. But when you read on you see the price he gives is FOB China, and asks you to call for shipping prices. This ploy is used in hiding from the buyer the fact that shipping from Orient  to Eastern Port Then from Port to Sellers warehouse and then from Warehouse to buyers Estate and that each haul will need at least two 40 foot containers. Well After all is said and done buyer can be looking at a shipping bill possibly of 40 thousand dollars or more.Now  another very real danger is what happens if Fountain or several pieces of the fountain gets broken in transit..The half price e bay seller mentions nothing about this real possibility. He wants you to handle shipping..I am responsible for replacing any and all broken items..Transporting 40 tons of carved Marble from China to NY and then to Chicago or where ever is a VERY costly process with 2 completely full fourty foot trailers.. They cannot go Common Freight but must be transported by Air Cushion Ride Shocks on the trailers..No Common Freight Company's run that type of trailer, so you must use an Antiquarian Hauler..I am speaking basics so you the e bay community will have a better understanding of the delivery process....Just wanted to apprise all of you bargain hunters out there, If you only look for the cheapest price look to get a cheap lawyer also because thats the route you'll be going dealing with sellers that hide key information.from you and the windup is you may actually be looking at the most expensive price.. If its to good to be true  You know the story..Know who your seller is and how long he has been with Ebay and finally is he a platinum Power Seller or a Gold Power seller Read thru his feedback.Actually this is a non issue in the near future because Ebay will be haulting this trickery by mid-August and sellers must put down actual shipping prices. In any event pay extra close attention to whom your buying from. On this fountain It is being made by several different Foundries and at different prices One foundry in particular is the Best and most expensive..This is my Foundry there quality work is absolutely worth the extra cash...Other foundries offer lower prices and it shows immed in their quality and marble they use. The visual appeal of my Fountain is ASTOUNDING. An ideal visual enhancement for any Major Estate, Casino, Hotel, Racetrack, Golf or Country Club, Restaurant  Night Club County City or State Park or Memorial. It is SPECTACULAR. The Rouge/Pink Marble 3 tier Fountain has the finest carvings I've yet seen  The figures  Mythological in Nature are Stupendous! Workmanship/Carving and detail are the finest imaginable. The top tier has Neptune with trident in Hand petting his Dolphin while a giant Crocodile lifts his head above the top bowl. The second tier has Giant figural Dolphins bearing their Huge Teeth with Large Lion's Masks around the rim..Water shoots out from the Lions Faces and each tier has water either flowing down or shooting out of the figures.
