Monumental 19th c Gilt Copper Spire Roof Finial
Located in Hanover, MA
Extraordinary architectural roof finial spire over 9 feet high constructed of hand beaten copper then finished in gold leaf.
Looking for a statement piece? You've found it!
Weighs under 75 pounds. Stands steady on its own. In two pieces: the top ~40 inches can be removed from the rest, for ease of transport.
Unrestored.
Finish is worn and distressed but the original natural patina is gorgeous.
It may be possible to go over the gilding with something that will bring out its luster. We have only dusted it.
The largest sphere has a couple of noticeable dents which I'm sure could be pulled out however we love it just the way it is.
Found in the basement of an un-renovated 1850's brick townhouse atop Beacon Hill.
We speculate the copper is from Paul Revere's own works.
Unsigned apparently but some of the American companies who made finials, weathervanes, etc. were:
J.W. Fiske
Cushing & Sons,
Westervelt,
Mullins
Thomas W. Jones
Kenneth Lynch...
