Know before you buy
No, the polished copper will naturally oxidize when exposed to the elements. Over time, it will develop a classic, soft blue-green patina that protects the metal and adds a vintage aesthetic.
Yes, the included hardware is designed to accommodate various roof pitches. You can choose between a roof mount or a cupola mount depending on your structure's specific design.
Yes, it is crafted from 22-gauge copper and solid brass, making it highly weather-resistant. It is engineered to withstand harsh outdoor conditions while remaining balanced enough to rotate freely in the wind.
The figure itself arrives assembled, so you do not need to build the heron. You will only need to secure the mount and attach the directional letters to your chosen location.
The total assembled height of the weathervane is 26 inches. This includes the figure, the copper globes, and the directional assembly.
This product is designed to rotate freely with minimal wind resistance. Because it is backed by a lifetime warranty, you are covered should you experience any mechanical defects with the rotation assembly.
