The above Tooth and Toothbrush weathervane was originally commissioned by a dentist in Yellowknife in the Northwest Territory of Canada. She actually ordered two weathervanes; one in the large size for on top of her dental building and the other in the small size to go on the counter at the receptionist's desk. On the small version, we left a small slit in the brush section of the toothbrush and she put her business cards there! She planned to write the weathervanes off as an advertising expense for her business!
The vane featured above was made in all copper but we can make it using copper and brass (the North, South, East, West directionals are brass) or copper and gold leaf. We recently finished up a variation on this weathervane design for a dentist in West Virginia. See below for details and photos.

Our customer's last name starts with the letter "Q" so we did a custom monogram based on a font he sent to us. In addition to the letter "Q", he wanted four individual molars, one on each directional. We gold leafed the "Q" and the molars and left the toothbrush copper. It is my understanding that he plans to spotlight it at night up on the roof of his dental building. When the light hits the gold leaf, the effect should be quite memorable!
