Many of our Unicorn weather vanes have been made with copper bodies and gold leafed horns; however we recently
finished a spectacular Unicorn weathervane for a customer on the East Coast who wanted the Unicorn gilded with Palladium
(a silver colored leaf) rather than Gold. The only gold leaf we applied to this weathervane was on the spiral of the Unicorn’s
horn. You can see from the enclosed photos that the weathervane turned out beautifully.
As with all our weathervanes, the customer gets to choose what color eyes we put in their Unicorn. The Palladium Unicorn
weathervane had Aqua colored eyes although we have made Unicorn weathervanes with amethyst, blue and green eyes as
well. The choice is up to you.
Unicorns are magical beasts that have appeared in various forms throughout the world. Our Unicorn Weathervane is based
on the more Eurocentric interpretation of this mythological creature. The word 'unicorn' comes from the Latin 'Uni', meaning
one, and 'Cornu', meaning horn. Unicorns have appeared in Western writings for over 2000 years and sources include
the bible, Aristotle and Genghis Khan. The Unicorn also evolved as a mythical creature in China as early as 2800 BC.
For those of you who like
mythological horses, we also offer a Pegasus weathervane design. For more
