A stunning weathervane featuring the Clangers looking up at a shooting star, framed by a crescent moon. A wonderful gift for the garden of anyone who enjoyed watching these whimsical little creatures. All of our weathervanes are built to last. The finish consists of a layer zinc electroplate, applied before the highly durable matt black powder coat is baked on at 170 degrees. It has the look of traditional ironwork, but with it’s longevity extended by the most up to date knowledge and processes.
How long should my Clangers weathervane last?
It's a valid question, but one that's impossible to answer with certainty due to the many variables involved. For instance, your location plays a significant role. If you're situated on a cliff by the sea, the salt air and strong winds will inevitably affect the lifespan of any metalwork. This is in stark contrast to a weathervane mounted on a shed in a sheltered inland garden. We started producing our wind vanes in 2012, and many of our original prototypes are still in excellent condition today, thanks to the highly durable finish. Some of these prototypes are even located in coastal villages, where they continue to perform well despite the harsher conditions.
