Here's a new style of fountain...anyone seen this type before? Does it work properly? Muse Verte Fountain

Digit tried to get one awhile ago from that pastis' american importer. i forget what happened. hopefully he'll see this thread and comment.

They have been around for quite some time. I saw one in Germany. I thought it was ugly, but that's just me.

it didn't have anything nice to say about your appearance either!


it's not easy being green.


actually i think he was just thinking of a cheaper alternative. if i remember correctly, the company had a nice set including the pastis for a price lower than any of the other fountains available.

It has good taste then.

I've heard that there were a bunch of defects, with those fountains awhile back.
I think they had a bunch that were cracked, if I remember correctly.

vintage versions ( 1960's, i believe) pop up in junk stores and flea markets in southern france. it was originally designed for pastis with the hole being for ice (or maybe olives for snacking?)
i concur, they work, but they are all butt-ugly...

Perhaps Peter could answer this, Has anyone tried looking for the original tooling & glass molds from the old fountains?
Are any of the old producers of fountains still in business, doing other products?

Here's another version of the LMV Fountain....

It looks ugly as sin, and brittle as hell.

no thanks.

Ditto.
