This precious metal naturally achieves a Verdigris effect over a period of time.  A lacquer spray can be used to prolong the polished effect and delay the development of the natural patina.  The 3D bodies are handcrafted from beaten copper sections and brazed.  The brazing will be visible, but this does not tend to detract from the overall good looks of our copper weathervanes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg class=\"image_left\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1076\/3598\/files\/spec_brass.png?2878708729665127941\" alt=\"Brass Construction\" width=\"63\" height=\"74\"\u003eCast brass fittings are used for the cardinal points (NSEW) on our 3D polished copper weathervanes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg class=\"image_left\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1076\/3598\/files\/spec_steel.png?8874891287088278717\" alt=\"Steel Construction\" width=\"63\" height=\"74\"\u003eSteel is used for the rotation rods and standard bracket mount on the 3D weathervanes.
