All-copper and brass weathervanes
give rooftops a traditional touch. The
solid-brass directionals of Good Direction's
Weathervanes can withstand
high winds without bending. The fullbodied
figures, however, are made of
copper in the traditional way. Both
materials will oxidize to a similar
green color, though the brass may take
a while longer. A large selection of
figures – everything from pigs to
cherubs – is available. And a choice of
three mounting brackets – for flat
roofs, ridges, and eaves – is offered.
