Project Spotlight: Dancing Girl Fountain in Raleigh, North Carolina

Our team at Kenneth Lynch & Sons always enjoys working closely with homeowners to bring their design visions to life. With nearly 100 years of experience in the industry, we are able to apply our expertise to every outdoor living project and create beautiful handcrafted garden elements and outdoor furnishings that will last for generations. Additionally, we offer customization options that suit the needs of each unique outdoor space.

This recent project featuring the Dancing Girl Fountain came to us when a homeowner from Raleigh, North Carolina was inspired by a feature of our fountain in Southern Lady Magazine. The homeowner’s current fountain was decaying and they envisioned adding a new lead figure in its place along with a custom trellis.

Our team worked closely with Sarah Stone Reeves, Landscape Architect, the engineering team, and the contractor on site to carefully template the niche in the stone wall so we could create a custom trellis that would fit perfectly into the space. Additionally, we found that the existing pool would require a tall cast stone pedestal in order to place the Dancing Girl figure at the correct height within the trellis.

The finished result is beautiful! We loved seeing the Dancing Girl figure incorporated into the brick fountain pool, and the custom trellis was a beautiful way to enhance the figure as the focal point in this charming southern courtyard. View the before and after images:
