Very Fine And Rare Molded Full-bodied Sheet Copper And Zinc Goddess Of Liberty Weathervane, Northeastern United States, Circa 1915

This exceptional full-bodied weathervane depicts the Goddess of Liberty in molded sheet copper and zinc, masterfully crafted in the Northeastern United States around 1915. The figure exemplifies the remarkable artisanship of American weathervane makers, combining functional design with striking patriotic symbolism. The use of copper and zinc materials would have allowed the piece to develop a rich patina over time while maintaining its structural integrity against the elements.
