Weather vanes, also known as wind vanes are used to detect the direction of the wind. Weather vanes are usually attached to an elevated object, mostly rooftops to indicate the course of the wind. The weather vane has evolved as a beautiful collectible and unusual piece of folk art. It is often found in the shape of cockerels, popularly known as weathercocks. However, other shapes such as arrows, pigs, angels, cows and multiple other designs can now be found in the form of weather vanes. They are made of different materials such as copper, brass, sheets of metal and wood.

Wooden vanes are part of the traditional architecture of weather vanes. Shapes of different animals, birds or statues are carved out on the wood to define the form of vanes. Weight and measurement of the wooden weather vane depend on their shape and size. Wooden skillets are used to mount the finished piece at the rooftop. Apart from placing them on rooftops they can also be placed on other places in the house, such as kitchen plate stands or fireplace mantels for display purposes.

Weather vanes can be made at home if required. The shape and form of the weather vane may be selected after studying sample weathervanes. Then an outline of the design chosen may be stenciled on the piece of wood. Thereafter the wood is cut out according to the shape stenciled on it. Rough edges and splinters may be smoothened out by sand papering them. A coat of varnish and polish will preserve their natural wood color. Different paint finishes with vibrant color schemes may be used according to personal choice.
