Pelican Copper Weathervane Mounted on Base

About the Item

Antique metal weathervane in the shape of a Pelican. The metal has developed a rich patina over time, with a mix of greenish oxidation and brown rust, indicative of age and exposure to the elements. The weathervane is mounted on a black iron base, which provides stability for indoor presentation. This pelican was once part of a functional weathervane system, likely mounted on a rooftop or post.
