A concept for a Weathervane incorporating elements of significance to the family is established for a new home on Cape Cod and I establish a scale over a drawing of the house.
Stainless Steel bars are hot forged to form the wind indicator elements representing the nearby ocean waves, a forged heavy bronze bar in the form of a flying seabird will be inserted to point to the wind direction, and a precisely balanced pennant tail will provide delicate response to the wind.
The pennant tail is crafted from smoothly hammered copper with polished hammers and flatters
“Directionals” are actually the initials of the family members plus other personal symbolism is woven into the design, as well as the nearby ocean waves. And now the Cape Cod Weathervane dances in the wind, forged of Stainless Steel, Copper and Bronze for maintenance free service for generations..
