Weathervanes have definitely endured the test of time and have recently enjoyed a remarkable surge in popularity. They can be seen adorning the tops of homes, barns, churches, and halls throughout landscapes the world over. Whether used to forecast the weather, or simply to adorn your rooftop – weathervanes are unquestionably here to stay.

A bit of interesting research indicates that historians of the early “wind vane” tend to agree that the first documented weathervane depicted Triton, a Greek demi-god of the sea. Greek astronomer Andronicus mounted this large weathervane atop the Athenian Tower of Winds in 48 B.C. Other records denote that the Chinese used streamers, much later called banners or bannerets, in about the 2nd Century B.C. to indicate wind direction and strength. Prior to the invention of the barometer (1643), people had come to depend on “wind vanes” fashioned in a host of different designs and sizes to foretell weather changes.

Those ancient and unpretentious, albeit practical, wind vanes were no doubt the harbingers to our modern day weathervanes. Over time they evolved to include themes such as: Animals, Birds, Fish, Nautical, Patriotic, Stained Glass, and even Planes, Trains and Automobiles.
