Description
Inspired by Thomas Jefferson's affinity for invention, this finely balanced wind vane will add movement and elegance to any garden.
Young and old alike will enjoy watching the beautiful aluminum cups gently sweep around this two-toned Kinetic Wind Vane. Based on the design of a 19th century centrifugal regulator, as the wind increases, the hinged joints allow the aluminum arms to rise and in doing so, the brass finials of each arm will point to the relative wind speed depicted in timeless illustrations on the solid brass arrow below. At the same time, the brass arrow will gently turn to face the direction of the wind.
Product Highlights:
• The sturdy pole base can be securely mounted to a flat surface, such as a deck railing, or installed directly into the ground. Please note that ground mounting reduces the overall height by nearly a foot. Since the wind vane stands at 3.5 feet tall, it can also be placed on top of a 4x4 post for added height, making it ideal for use in garden beds.
