That form can be seen with this gilt bronze dolphin waterspout from France, dating to the 1900s. The dolphin has detailing that supports the antiquated depiction, such as the scale-covered snaking body that is topped by a tripartite fin. An opening has been made to the dolphin’s mouth, allowing water to exit freely. Based on the position of the attaching bolt that is positioned on the back side of the dolphin, our gilt bronze waterspout is designed to be plumbed through a wall, making it a wonderful option for a bathtub. less
