 Construction

  Copper is used on our 3D ranges (heads and  ball spacers) offering timeless quality with corrosion-free durability. We have sparayed the copper to give it an all over natural looking patina   The 3D bodies are 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 weathervanes.

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.

Exterior Protection

Our verdigris 3D weathervanes are coated with an exterior quality powder coat paint which protects the weathervane and offers a durable finish.  You can expect this finish to look good for quite some time!

The weathervane rods and mounts are coated with an exterior quality powder coat paint which protects the steel and offers a durable finish.   For extended life, we suggest giving the mount a coat of Hammerite paint.
