Why Copper Weathervanes? Weathervanes have traditionally been made out of iron. So what’s so special about cooper weathervanes? Firstly, unlike iron and most other metals, copper will not rust and so is longer lasting. Secondly, copper is an easy metal of the artist blacksmith to work with and creating interesting weathervane designs is much easier than with other metals. Thirdly, copper weathervanes look better as they age. Copper gets an attractive antique looking green patina as it is exposed to the atmosphere which makes copper weathervanes look more interesting as they age. You can easily design your own weathervane and find an artist blacksmith to fabricate it for you.
