FAQ's About Our Copper Weathervanes
Q. When I purchase a copper weathervane, what is included?
A. Each of our whimsical weathervanes includes the copper figure (such as a sailboat or horse for example), rust-free brass & stainless steel rod, the decorative copper spacer balls and traditional solid brass directionals.
Q. Is the weathervane made of quality materials?
A. Absolutely! Our weathervanes are made of only the finest metals. The figural piece and the spacer balls are made of 100% copper and will age beautifully with time. The N-S-W-E directional arms are made of 100% brass for long lasting durability, even in the harshest climates. Finally, the rod is comprised of brass and stainless steel guaranteed not to rust and provides maintenance free enjoyment.
Q. What’s the difference between the green finish and the polished finish?
A. In a word: Time. The green finish provides that naturally worn look that many people like their copper weathervanes to have. It’s simply copper that has been aged through a special treatment process. Meanwhile, the polished finish is the “brand spanking new” look. Each has its place and which is right for your home really depends on your personal preference as well as the overall look you’re trying to achieve with the weathervane. The polished finish will also eventually develop a rich patina finish, but in its own sweet time.
Q. If I Choose the Polished Finish, How Long Will It Stay Shiny?
A. After being displayed in the outdoors and exposed to the natural elements, your new weathervane will start to lose its polished look within a month or two. From there, it will age gracefully and begin to tarnish slowly, producing a wonderful aged patina.
Q. What do I need to mount my new weathervane?
A. We recommend using our #401Al adjustable roof mount for most of our weathervanes. This is the simplest and most economical method to mount and display your new weathervane for years to come. However, it depends on the size of the weathervane so each weathervane will identify the recommended mounting option for secure display.
Q. How Easy Is the Weathervane to Assemble?
A. You only need a single screwdriver and complete instructions are included. Assembly is quick and easy as all the parts slide onto the rod and are then secured for a lifetime with the screws provided.
Q. Can a Weathervane Be Displayed Indoors?
A. Most certainly! Many of our customers purchase our unique weathervanes for interior decor. We offer a wide range of accessories including mantle bases and floor stands so that you can display your new weathervane in any location in your home.
Q. How Durable Is the Weathervane Against Harsh Winds and Rugged Climates?
A. Rest assured - our weathervanes are built tough to last. Since the rod is made of steel and brass, it will never rush and requires no maintenance. In high wind locations, we strongly recommend that during installation, you ensure that your weathervane figure spins freely.
Q. What are the Most Popular Selling Weathervanes?
A. Everyone has different taste and all of our weathervanes are strong sellers. However, the Eagle, Rooster, and Horse all of which people associate with traditional weathervanes from days gone by, are always customer favorites.
