The Verdigris weathervanes are pure copper that is naturally aged outside at our workshop\yard to develop a lovely natural aged green Verdigris patina. We have many weathervanes aging at different stages on a staggered schedule. and many batches become available for sale at several points in the year. All age at different rates and no two look completely the same so it creates a stunning individual weathervane that has a magnificent aged and traditional appearance

The weathervane rod that fits into the bracket is 19.5mm diameter steel tubing that is treated with a durable exterior black powdercoat paint

Standard Bracket

Features

• Includes everything you need to construct the weathervane: Steel rod, NSEW directionals, verdigris copper globes and weathervane figure

• Exclusive Single Point Contact design allows the weathervane to spin freely in the wind

Construction

• Copper: The weathervane designs are handcrafted from pure copper and brazed. Brazing may be visible on some designs but doesn't tend to lessen the beauty of the lovely copper weathervane design. Globes and spacers are also made from pure copper, the copper over time has naturally aged to a Verdigris patina

• Brass: Cast brass is used for the NSEW cardinal points on the range of copper weathervanes

• Steel: Rods and brackets to mount the copper weathervanes are made from steel. The steel is treated with a durable exterior black powdercoat paint. The finish should be good for a reasonable amount of time out in the elements but in time if the steel rods and brackets weather they can be painted with an exterior metal paint such as Hammerite which restores the finish and will help preserve and extend the life of the fittings. Clear mastic can also be used on any joints for example where the rod is inserted and secured into the bracket to seal and further weatherproof and prolong the life of the steel bracket and rod
