Smithsonian Eagle Weathervane in Blue Verde Copper By Good Directions

Smithsonian Eagle Weathervane in Blue Verde Copper

A weather vane, or wind vane, shows which direction the wind is blowing. It is usually placed on rooftops, barns, or towers, with its arrow or figure pointing into the wind. Traditionally, the tool helped farmers and sailors understand wind patterns. Now, it is used by all weather observers to track changes in conditions. While weather vanes started as functional tools, they have also become charming decorations. The eagle symbolized the American Union in 1782, representing freedom and strength. Good Directions has made pure copper weathervanes since 1982.

These weathervanes are known for their classic style and quality. They come with an assembly rod, solid brass directionals, and copper globes, and you can buy a 401AL Roof Mount separately. These designs are part of our Smithsonian® Collection and are handcrafted. The weather vanes are made to last, using 100% pure copper or high-quality aluminum with solid brass parts. Each has a sturdy steel assembly rod with a protective powder-coated finish for added strength and weather resistance.
