What is the difference between the green and
the polished finish? |
|
The green finish is referred to as "patina."
This is an artificial finish applied to give the weathervane the
appearance of an antique. To some people, the polished finish is
more appealing. After assembly, these weathervane figures are
placed on buffers to give them luster and shine. |

Within one month the weathervane will lose its
polished look and start to naturally tarnish on its own. |
