Enamelled steel wall fountain - 1850

What to do with a wall fountain If you've read thoreau, and you want to retreat to the forest by a lake, you can join the useful with the pleasant by adding the services of this beautiful room, the beginning of the idea that the comfort of the toilet comes through an available flow of water. If your retirement desires are in question and the object tempts you, it is your imagination that will give it a function. Idea: the wall fountain has its place in a garden; water will heat up if the reserve is exposed south. The faucet is working. A small piece of marseille soap and the gardening session becomes a moment of unique coquettishness. The cyan and white blue marbling recalls the moistness of the running water. The general condition is pretty good, except for a few visible shards in the photo. The wood that supports the whole is valiant but to be refreshed at convenience. It is good to learn that the first enamelled cast iron utensils date from the 18th century and appeared in germany. The industrial revolution of the 19th century allowing the manufacture of cast iron (progress of blast furnaces) and then steel (development of converters) in large quantities allowed the development of enamel on these supports. Enamelled steel has multiple properties that make it a material of choice for many applications. Its characteristics result from the favourable combination of the properties of the two materials that make it up, steel and enamel. Steel brings its mechanical strength and shaping qualities, while the enamel brings unalterability and gives all its sparkle to the surface of the room. Enamelled objects with mineral pigments prevent the fermentation of bacteria, do not absorb odours, are not attacked by food or cosmetic acids, and support without flinching the direct flame (and even induction!). Woaow, woaow!.
