Large 19th-Century Rooster Weathervane

A 19th‑century French copper rooster weathervane with hand‑riveted seams and a deep, weathered patina. The full-bodied rooster’s broad 29‑inch silhouette shows a strong, arched tail with raised ridges and a simple, confident folk‑art profile. The surface carries traces of old gilt and natural verdigris, giving the piece a warm, time‑softened character. It’s mounted on a forged iron display base that brings the total height to 27 inches.
