Blacksmith / Farrier & Horse Weathervane, Handmade, Very High Quality
A beautifully created weathervane featuring a Farrier shoeing a Shire Horse - a design I call simply
The Farrier.
Each Original Forgery weathervane is manufactured by hand, based around unique designs and are of the highest quality. This should not be confused with weathervanes as seen in the local garden centre.
The pointer assembly measures 35" from point to tail with the motif standing 11" tall. The motifs are laser cut from 3mm steel plate. The cardinal (NSEW) assembly measures 18" from North to South. The pointer assembly is individually balanced and acts upon a ball bearing to give very free movement.
The weathervane comes complete with a 3" off set gable end mounting but I am more than happy to provide a different mounting if required. When assembled the whole weathervane stands 47" tall!
Each weathervane is finished with an acid based etching primer, two coats of zinc phosphate & two coats of semi-gloss black paint. The spheres, point & tail flights are then highlighted with a copper patine to create a stunning weathervane.

I am more than happy to send worldwide but carriage charges shown refer to England, Wales & southern Scotland.
Thanks for looking & good luck.
