SNAIL WEATHERVANE
Snail Weather Vane

Snail Weathervane
This Snail Weathervane was created all in copper, with distinct tooling to mimic its shell and slub-like body. As with all our weathervanes, this Snail weather vane can be personalized by optional gold leafing.
The word snail is a common name that can be used for almost all members of the molluscan class Gastropoda which have coiled shells in the adult stage. (Those snails which do not have a shell or only a very small shell are usually called slugs. Snails which have a broadly conical shell which is not coiled, or appears not to be coiled, are often known as limpets.) When the word snail is used in a general sense, it includes sea snails, land snails and freshwater snails.
The class of Gastropoda (the snails and slugs) is second only to the insects in terms of total number of species. Snails are extraordinarily diverse in habitat, form, behavior, and anatomy, and therefore what is true of one snail species may not at all be true of another.
