Good Questions: Where Do I Find These Fleur-de-Lys Concrete Blocks?
Los Angeles

051209readerquest01.jpgDear Apartment Therapy Los Angeles,
My question is: Here are two pictures of some kind of masonry blocks in a fleur-de-lys design used to make a wall. They may be concrete. They're on an apartment building in Santa Monica near the Montana Avenue shopping district. I've seen at least one other fleur-de-lys design block in another location, but I can't remember where it is or find it again. Those were made of concrete. Anyone know a source for these? They're wonderful! -Maggi

If the building is old (from the 70's and bellow), then there is a big chance that the manufacturer doesn't exist anymore.

Your best bet would be to make a mold.
