An old Victorian engraving of a design for a decorative aquarium and open fernery water feature. It is from a book of 1890. Above the fish tank is a fountain and at its base an informal rockery. The material used for the metalwork is mostly zinc with a steel/iron central pillar supporting the glass tank. The water is re-circulated by using hydro pneumatics.
