In 1782, the eagle became the official emblem for the new American union. Today, he''s spreading his broad wings to adorn the rooftop of your home, garage, cupola, barn, gazebo, pergola, or shed. This Smithsonian Eagle Weathervane Pure Copper with Golden Leaf Finish by Good Directions is carefully handcrafted with a Golden Leaf finish that is visually striking. The artisans meticulously apply the Golden Leaf on the copper resulting in a weathervane of majestic status. Over time, the golden leaf will weather and the pure copper underneath will patina and peak through, creating a beautiful contrast of colors.
