Velocette Weathervane
A motorcycle weather vane featuring a Velocette, a quintessentially British motorbike produced from the early part of the 20th century until 1971 when the company disbanded. Velocette were a small volume, UK family owned producer who were innovative for their time and still hold active patents today. Our stunning vintage motorbike weathervane is cut using a computer guided laser, capable of highlighting the distinctive fishtail exhaust of the Velocette, even picking out individual spokes as well as the sprung saddle and Webb girder forks. A wonderful & unique gift for a vintage motorbike enthusiast, created by a vintage motorbike enthusiast!
We absolutely love the detail of this weathervane design, in particular the fish tail exhaust. It creates an amazingly dinstinctive silhouette against the sky; ideal for topping off an enthusiasts workshop or motorbike garage.
Unique gifts for motorbike enthusiasts
This Velocette weathervane is the perfect blend of artistry and functionality. The laser cut vintage motorbike design sits at the back of the sail and is perfectly balanced by a heavy arrow head, meaning the sail will turn into the wind, so it is an effective weather reading tool as well as a beautiful decorative piece. Like the Velocette itself, Black Fox Metalcraft's weathervanes are designed and built in the UK by a small family business. Created to last, the matt black powdercoat gives a traditional aesthetic, while the zinc electroplate increases the lifespan of the weathervane tenfold in comparison with a non-electroplated weathervane.
Designed and crafted entirely in the UK, Black Fox Metalcraft's weathervanes are all electroplated as standard, meaning their lifespan will be significantly longer than that of a non electroplated version. The matt black powdercoat gives a traditional aesthetic, which because of the high standard of the finish, will be maintained for many years to come.
