Early 20th Century Copper Weathervane

1900 - 1920
Description

Early 20th Century Hand-Crafted Copper Weathervane

This fine example is stamped at the base L.S Corp Limited who are one of the world’s largest companies in copper and smelter production. The company was established in 1939. We are unsure if the base has been taken later from another item to create this example or if it was intended to be together from its creation. This object displays a jockey on horse and is naively made with an American style of craftsmanship.

Size in inches: H 15” x W 24” x D 1.5”

Origin: American / Unknown

Date: Early 20th Century

Condition: Aged

Rough Weight: 4kg

We believe this item is around 80 to 100 years old, still in complete original condition. There is wear and tear present in the form of faded surface, natural verdigis, and damage to the bridle sections.

We strongly suggest reviewing all the photos provided as part of this advert and propose questions where sections are unclear to avoid disappointment upon purchase.

A direct message usually takes 24 hours to answer.

For multiple years we have sold antique items globally, please review our client feedback as a testament to our products and services. Expect our items to show relevant age and natural wear, we only restore due to breaks and major loss, and we always stipulate this in our condition report if this has been down before or after we have obtained them.

Strictly Vetted Dealers

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.

Secure Transit

Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.

The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

Authentic antique copper weather vanes typically display hand-hammered seams, hand-riveted assembly points, and genuine oxidisation or verdigris patination acquired from prolonged weather exposure. Modern reproductions often exhibit uniform machine stampings, chemical patination, or synthetic coatings.

An antique copper weather vane can be repurposed as focal architectural wall art or mounted on a bespoke display stand for a mantelpiece, sideboard, or bookshelf. Its metallic texture and sculptural profile provide visual interest within rustic, traditional, or eclectic interior schemes.

To preserve the historical surface patination, avoid abrasive metal polishes and harsh chemicals. Dust gently with a soft dry cloth or soft-bristled brush, and apply a light coat of microcrystalline wax if necessary to protect the metal without altering its natural finish.

Early 20th-century weather vanes were predominantly constructed from sheet copper, cast iron, zinc, or brass. Copper was favoured for its malleability, lightweight nature, and high resistance to atmospheric corrosion over extended periods of outdoor exposure.

Horse and jockey weather vanes became prominent during the late 19th and early 20th centuries, reflecting the popular popularity of horse racing and equestrian sport. Crafted by metalworkers and foundry craftsmen, these wind vanes served both as practical instruments for indicating wind direction and as decorative architectural finials for stables, barns, and country estates.
