Copper Weathervanes
Copper weathervanes and the different finishes available
Weathervanes made from copper offer a range of stylish finishes. Untreated, your copper weathervanes will first turn a natural rich brown color over time, and then progress into the next stage of ageing which produces a natural green patina finish.
Jumping the queue with the green patina finish
The natural green color attributed to aged copper suggests class and style, and thus is more desirable by some people than the shiny finish. In this case you can opt to speed up the ageing process through a patina application and receive your weathervane already aged!
Sealing your copper weathervanes with a shiny enamel
Alternatively you can opt to seal in the long lasting shine on your copper vane and go for the more modern enamel finish. This will make your weathervane retain its initial gloss and shine for much longer, thus delaying the ageing process.
