Copper Weathervane and Finial Finishes

Ferro weathervanes offers you the widest range of  custom hand applied copper finishes. My Copper Weathervanes and Finials are priced with your choice of standard finish, unless otherwise noted.    The Special Request finishes are available for any copper figure.  Email for a quote.

Standard Finishes

NATURAL COPPER – Fresh, clean satin luster copper.  Expect this finish to gradually darken once exposed to the weather.

Click for Natural Aging Chart

BRONZE – A hand-rubbed natural chemical wash creates a classic golden-brown patina which highlights detail and texture. This finish prevents fingerprints and allows even aging.

VERDIGRIS – This hand-rubbed treatment is a realistic gray/green-patina of the surface of the copper simulating antique copper.

BLACK OXIDE – A hand-rubbed chemical treatment designed to create a dark patina on copper for those who prefer the look of weathered wrought iron.

Special Request Finishes (additional charge)

GOLD ENAMEL – Our Hand brushed gold enamel is a great, inexpensive alternative to gold leaf and less expensive to maintain. A gold enameled weathervane is striking against a clear blue sky or green trees.

GOLD LEAF – Gold Leaf figures are coated with true 23 Karat Gold by hand applying gold leaf then burnishing the surface for a lifetime shine. This finish does not fade or tarnish.  Learn More Here.

TINNED – Lead/tin coated is bonded by heat onto the surface of the copper to prevent a verdigris patina or stain on other parts of the building.  It will not stain your stone, brick, or other masonry.

ACCENTS – Use Gold, tin, and enamel to accent details of a figure or add gold leaf to a fully verdigris figure for an authentic aged gold finish.

CLEAR COAT – A quality clear coat finish will keep your copper from tarnishing. Be sure to re-coat it periodically to maintain that fresh copper color.

COLORED FINISH – High quality enamel or powder coating in any color. Evoke a folk art style, add bold detail, or a realistic look.

CUSTOM FINISHES – Combine the techniques above for a creative unique finish!

Finishes are not guaranteed.
