The circular base is rests on measures 6.5" of diameter. The verdigris patina, a result of natural oxidation over the years, not only enhances the finial’s aesthetic but also serves as a testament to its enduring quality and historical significance. In a contemporary home, this Victorian copper finial can be repurposed as a distinctive decorative object. Its rich patina and unique form make it an ideal conversation piece when placed atop a mantel, console table, or as part of a curated vignette in a living room or entryway. The finial's weathered appearance contrasts beautifully with modern interiors, providing a touch of rustic charm and a connection to the past. Alternatively, the finial could be used in an outdoor setting, such as a garden or patio, where its verdigris patina would complement the natural surroundings, adding an element of history and architectural interest. Whether displayed indoors or outdoors, this 19th-century copper finial brings a sense of Victorian elegance and timeless beauty to any space, making it a cherished addition to any home decor.

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.

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...
