Manatee Weathervane
The Manatee (Trichechus manatus) or
Sea Cow weather vane featured in this image consists of
a copper Manatee and sea bed with brass seaweeds. Because our vanes are made to
order, the choice of metals can be modified at the time an order is placed.
The Manatee's eyes are made from handcrafted glass eyes with black
pupils. People who order this weather vane get to choose the eye color they want
for their weather vane. |

Our
customer graciously sent us a photo of the Manatee weathervane once it was
installed out at the end of a deck. It was done as a gift for her parents.
Here is an except from the note that accompanied the
photo.
"I thought you would
enjoy seeing Manatee #1 installed on my parent's house in Key Largo, FL.
They have it at the corner of a planter area by a walkway that goes around
their house. They have lots of windows and can see the vane from almost
all of them. They love it and have gotten many compliments from friends
and neighbors who are absolutely amazed that such a thing should even
exist! Thank you again for your patience in working with us on the design.
We think the results are well worth the efforts".
