Arrow Farmhouse Copper Weathervane

The Espira Arrow Farmhouse Copper Weathervane is a stunning addition to any rooftop, with a rich history that spans centuries and countries. Handcrafted with attention to detail, this weathervane features a decorative feature and spacer balls made from polished copper, adding a touch of elegance to your home or outbuilding. The cardinal points, NSEW, are made from polished brass, complemented by a powder-coated black steel rotation rod.

Over time, the polished copper will develop a beautiful patina, adding character to your weathervane. To slow down this process, you can apply a few coats of a high-quality clear lacquer spray. Please note that the polished brass may also discolour over time, but a coat of Hammerite will extend the life of the steel rotation rod.

The Espira Arrow Farmhouse Copper Weathervane comes with a 1-year warranty and is supplied as standard with an Eave Bracket, projecting 125mm (5") with a 10cm square mounting plate. Its simple yet classic design will make a timeless statement on any rooftop.

The History of Weathervanes

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. In the 9th Century AD, the Pope purportedly decreed that every church in Europe should show a cockerel on its dome or steeple, as a reminder of the prophecy by Jesus that the cock would not crow the morning after the Last Supper until the disciple, Peter had denounced Him three times.

Aging Gracefully

Polished copper will quickly lose its lustre, developing an attractive patina before finally turning Verdigris after many years. This natural aging process adds character and charm to the weathervane. If you prefer to slow down this process, you can apply several coats of a good quality clear lacquer spray.

Long-lasting and Durable

The polished brass may discolour over time, but a coat of Hammerite will help to extend the life of the steel rotation rod. Rest assured, we offer a 1-year warranty to protect your purchase.

Easy Installation

All Farmhouse weathervanes are supplied as standard with an Eave Bracket. This bracket projects 125mm (5") and comes with a 10cm square mounting plate, making installation a breeze.
