Our gilded copper weathervane, Coturnix coturnix of a male walking on a feather is very popular. It can be detailed to represent either California Quail or Gambels Quail, depending on which bird is native to your area. The optional gilding can be done in both gold and palladium leaf, accenting the distinctive markings for which each bird is known. The eyes are glass, and are available in a nice range of colors. The bar beneath the birds feet can be inscribed, and grasses can be added in brass or copper.
It is crafted in the swell bodied technique, free hand style, by our wonderful artisans. As a result, though each of our weather vanes is part of a limited number series, no two are ever exactly alike. When ordering you will have the option of including ‘Lucky’ Pennies of significant dates along with the penny from the year of manufacture that will be sealed into your sculpture piece.
Our quail weathervanes have taken residence in diverse locations. They show and function beautifully at ground level, on fences and decks, and certainly on roof tops.
