Decorative Cone Banner Weathervane
Our Decorative Cone Banner Weathervane combines the strong horizontal profile of a traditional banner with a distinctive cone-shaped decorative element. The elongated silhouette creates an elegant architectural presence against the sky while the ornamental detailing gives this banner a character of its own.
Handcrafted in copper by SkyArt Studio & Gallery, each Decorative Cone Banner Weathervane is individually fabricated with careful attention to proportion, balance, detail, and durability. The silhouette construction produces a crisp, recognizable profile while durable metals are incorporated into the fabrication where needed for strength and long-term outdoor use.
Banner-style weathervanes have a long place in the history of architectural ornament. Historic examples ranged from simple banners and arrows to more elaborate forms incorporating decorative shapes, pierced details, dates, lettering, symbols, and ornamental devices. The Smithsonian Institution’s collections include material documenting the history and variety of weathervanes, including banners, arrows, and other traditional designs.
The Decorative Cone Banner Weathervane carries this architectural tradition into a handcrafted contemporary piece. Its combination of a long horizontal banner and decorative cone creates visual interest without sacrificing the clean silhouette that allows a weathervane to remain clearly recognizable when viewed from the ground.
The proportions of the banner can also be adapted to complement the architecture on which it will be displayed. This makes the form particularly suitable for custom work in which dimensions, decorative details, dates, symbols, or other design elements are developed for a particular building or setting.

The Decorative Cone Banner Weathervane comes with our standard assembly, including two copper balls, brass retainer rings, a brass directional set, and stainless-steel mast. We use high-quality materials and components throughout the assembly with an emphasis on durability, proper function, and long-term outdoor performance.
The finish can be customized in faux bronze, verdigris, or 23-karat gold leaf. Natural copper is also available and will gradually develop its own distinctive patina through exposure to the elements.
