Perfect Pairings


Outdoor Weather Watching

The Jeffersonian Wind Vane adds classic motion, elegance, and weather-inspired interest to gardens, decks, patios, and outdoor spaces. Inspired by Thomas Jefferson’s love of invention, it brings an old-school weather instrument feel to modern outdoor décor.

Perfect for gardeners, weather watchers, science enthusiasts, history buffs, and anyone who enjoys decorative outdoor accents, this wind vane combines function and conversation-starting style.

Inspired by 19th Century Design

Unlike a basic garden stake, the Jeffersonian Wind Vane is based on the design of a 19th Century centrifugal regulator. When the wind blows, the aluminum cups sweep around the two-toned kinetic wind vane, creating visible motion in the garden.

As the wind speed changes, the arms rise to point to the relative wind speed, giving the piece both decorative movement and functional weather interest.

Shows Wind Direction

The brass arrow turns to face the direction of the wind, helping users see shifting outdoor conditions at a glance. This makes it a useful and engaging accent for yards, patios, decks, gardens, and weather-themed spaces.

Its combination of wind speed and wind direction indicators makes it more interactive than a purely decorative garden ornament.

Durable Outdoor Construction

The Jeffersonian Wind Vane is made with solid brass and aluminum construction with glass accents. The attractive brass finish is designed not to peel, flake, or rust, and it naturally patinas with age for a classic weathered look.

It can be staked into the ground or mounted on a deck with included hardware. Some assembly is required.
