Testing the wind for fortune or weather has been in practice for centuries. From hoisting a moistened finger into the air to tossing blades of grass or checking a weathervane we have used various methods of checking the weather before heading out. Today one of the most common ways to do this is with a weathervane.

Since 48 B.C. when a full-sized depiction of the Greek god Triton was placed atop the Tower of the Winds in Athens, ancient cultures have been using weathervanes to predict the weather. From the Latin fane meaning flag they originally were in the shape of flags. Eventually they took the form of roosters and other farm animals as well as ships and sea creatures.

One of the most common materials used for weathervanes is copper. Whether it�s polished and glowing or warmed with a blue-green patina it always looks good on your roof or in your garden. One of the best ways to see the best the world of copper weathervanes has to offer is by shopping online. You�ll be able to browse the largest selection and the best prices. So whether you want a horse weather vane or a medieval dragon you�ll add interest and style to your home or yard with ease.

Some copper weathervanes come shiny and polished and others appear already aged in a lovely blue-green verdigris finish. If you start out with a polished copper weathervane its sheen will eventually fade to a blue-green patina after years of use. So perhaps you want to embellish your roof with the enchantment of a mermaid weathervane in an antique finish? Or maybe you want to accent your cottage with a shimmering polished copper eagle weathervane?

No matter what shape of weathervane you choose you are sure to enjoy its beauty year after year. You can even enhance the charm and wonder of copper weathervanes by mounting them atop a copper-roofed cupola. Once used for ventilation on buildings such as barns cupolas are now used as decoration. Commonly seen as a four-sided structure of wood or vinyl with vents and a peaked copper roof they can raise your weathervane to new heights. And allow you to gaze upon it from any spot in your yard.

From motorcycles to trout and unicorns to insects there are copper weathervanes in nearly any shape you can imagine. So, rather than looking at your local stores for weathervanes try shopping from the comfort of your own home and you�ll see all the many varieties available online. Whether you want pine trees for the cottage or a dragonfly to station near your pond you�ll find the perfect weathervane to express yourself.

With a weathervane on your roof or in your garden you�ll not only have something beautiful to look at, but you�ll know the direction of the wind before you leave for your next bike ride or golf outing. So start looking for your perfect weathervane today and add charm and elegance to your home in a flash.
