Know before you buy
This weathervane is handcrafted from pure copper. Over time, the polished finish will naturally oxidize, transitioning from its bright, shiny state to a classic, weathered green patina.
While it is designed for straightforward assembly and installation, you will need to mount it securely to your roof or cupola. If you are uncomfortable working on your roof, we recommend hiring a professional roofer or contractor to ensure it is properly anchored.
The Single Point Contact℠ design minimizes friction by allowing the weathervane to balance on a single, precise point. This ensures the figure rotates smoothly and accurately with even the slightest breeze.
The package includes the copper shotgun figure, the solid brass directionals, and the assembly rod. You will need to ensure you have the appropriate mounting hardware for your specific roof or cupola surface.
Yes, the pure copper construction is highly durable and designed for outdoor longevity. However, ensure the mounting base is securely fastened to a stable structure to withstand heavy gusts.
