Weathervanes
Wind-swept, sloping green hills, a little cottage perched on the crest, surrounded by a white picket fence, with a weathervane atop the pointed, shingled roof. Everyone has envisioned such a breath-taking scene at some point. Weathervanes‘ iconic association with such scenes, and other lovely images of country living, inspires many persons to go about obtaining one of these unique decorations for their own homes, whether they live in the country, in the suburbs, or even in a city. These pieces can be found in many different sizes, featuring many different designs – from doves to airplanes to sailboats to dragons. These objects are so loved that they are sometimes displayed inside people’s homes on metal stands, rather than outside. These pieces, first derived for the functional purposes of agriculture, weather-prediction, and farming, are today used, not only for the original purposes, but also as unique home decoration pieces.
