Pair Zinc Roof-Top Architectural Spire-Form Finials

Antique zinc weathervane that we believe probably came from France and was constructed around the turn of the century and by that we mean circa 1900. Completely original and unrestor...

Antique Pair of Irish Bronze Drawer Pulls from the late Victorian Period. Beautifully polished and we are offering another very similar pair also on 1stdibs in similar condition.

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...

Roof Top Hand Wrought Architectural Element from 1920s. Have another one listed this one has three spikes the other has four. Very futuristic design for it's time.
