Exquisitely finished in copper verdigris with its brilliant plume this confident Bantam Rooster struts his stuff

Handcrafted in copper and with a manufactured verdigris finish with cast brass cardinal points , this beautiful weathervane comes from the Good Directions design house of New England and is a working piece of art.

For centuries, weather vanes have been relied upon to indicate the direction of the wind in order to predict weather patterns. Today, although still fully functional, weather vanes are also used as decorative accents.

Our Farmhouse weather vanes are the perfect complement for any home, garden or cupola

 Construction

Copper is used on this weathervane (heads and spacers) offering timeless quality with corrosion-free durability.  This precious metal is then given an verdigris effect by using a powdercoat.  It is handcrafted from beaten copper sections and brazed.  The brazing will be visible, but this does not tend to detract from the overall good looks of our copper verdigris weathervanes.

Cast brass fittings are used for the cardinal points (NSEW) on this copper weathervane, and then coated in verdigris powdercoat

Steel is used for the rotation rods and standard bracket mount on the 3D weathervanes.  The steel is coated with an exterior quality powder coat paint for extended life.

The weathervane rods and mounts are coated with an exterior quality powder coat paint which protects the steel and offers a durable finish.  You can expect this finish to look good for quite some time!  For extended life, we suggest giving the mount a coat of Hammerite paint.
