Copper Weathervane

Monday, June 23rd, 2008

The history of the copper weathervane

The copper weathervane has come a long way in the last two millennia, and has evolved from a coveted naval instrument to an aesthetically beautiful work of art. While roosters and arrows were popular weathervane designs, many artisans took up the weathervane as a form of signposting and designed magnificent pointers illustrating their line of work.

The legend of the Papal copper weathervane decree

It is held that in the 9th century the Pope declared that all of the Churches in Christendom should have a rooster weathervane in remembrance of the apostle Peter. This was one of the most notable uses of the weathervane in popular history.

Carry on the tradition with your very own weathervane

Rooster Weathervane

Tuesday, June 17th, 2008

Bar Harbor Weathervanes is the leading manufacturer for classic and contemporary weathervane designs. The traditional rooster weathervane is carefully hand made from the finest copper sheets to produce an age-old design that is guaranteed to add a touch of vintage charm to your home’s décor!

This ageing process takes place over approximately ten years, depending on the weather conditions in your area.
