Product details
Product information
The history of weathervanes spans many centuries and countries, with the earliest recorded found on the Tower of the Winds in Athens built by the astronomer, Andronicus in 48 BC. The Ancients believed that winds had divine powers and weathervanes depicting deities could be found on the villas of wealthy landowners in Greece and pre-Christian Rome. The Farmhouse range of weathervanes are suitable for most homes and outbuildings. The decorative feature and spacer balls are made from polished copper and brazed together by hand. The cardinal points, NSEW are polished brass with a powder-coated black steel rotation rod.

Features and benefits
Polished copper will quickly lose its lustre, developing an attractive patina before finally turning Verdigris after many years. This process can be slowed down by applying several costs of a good quality clear lacquer spray. The polished brass will discolour in time. A coat of Hammerite will extend the life of the steel rotation rod. All Farmhouse weathervanes are supplied as standard with an Eave Bracket. This bracket projects 125mm (5”) with a 10cm square mounting plate. The Victorian Arrow Weathervane is ornate and sophisticated, providing period elegance in a mixture of copper and brass.
