Farmyard fun with a gorgeous rooster weathervane

If you are looking for a fun and interesting way to spice up your garden, barn or garage, then have a little farmyard fun with a stunning copper rooster weathervane. This traditional weathervane design is timeless and will be a hit year after year as it slowly begins its natural ageing process.

Why does copper age? How does it age?

Copper is a natural element that oxidizes as it is exposed to the oxygen in air. It begins to form a natural protective patina layer that is one of the most highly sought after decorative finishes. The copper begins life as a shiny copper metal, moves through a rich brown phase, and finally settles in a gray green patina finish.
