About the Item

This delightful pig weathervane embodies the rustic charm and whimsical spirit of American folk art. Crafted from copper, the figure of a plump pig is rendered in a simple yet expressive silhouette, capturing the character of rural life. The surface exhibits a beautifully aged verdigris patina, with mottled green and brown tones that speak to its years of outdoor exposure and weathering. The weathervane is now presented on a sleek, custom-made black metal base, allowing it to be displayed as a sculptural decorative object. Its timeworn surface, with subtle dents and natural oxidation, adds authenticity and character, making it a perfect accent for a farmhouse kitchen, a rustic country home, or a collector of Americana.
