Smithsonian Eagle Weathervane

The Blue Verde finish is applied during the manufacturing process to give the copper an aged, weathered look immediately. While it is designed to be durable and weather-resistant, the copper may continue to evolve slightly over many years depending on your local climate and exposure to the elements.

The weathervane comes with the necessary brass directionals and copper globes. Please note that the specific roof mount or cupola mount required to secure the unit to your structure is typically sold separately, as the mounting hardware depends on your specific roof pitch and installation surface.

The weathervane is designed for straightforward assembly. You will need to attach the figure to the rod and secure the brass directionals, which can generally be completed with basic household tools.

It is fully functional. The eagle figure is balanced to rotate freely with the wind, allowing the brass directionals to accurately indicate wind direction.

Yes, it is compatible with both roof mounts and cupola mounts. For a gazebo, a cupola is often the preferred aesthetic choice, while a standard roof mount works well for traditional sloped or flat roof installations.

The Lifetime Warranty covers the structural integrity and craftsmanship of the copper construction. It ensures that your weathervane remains durable and resistant to corrosion under normal outdoor conditions.
