With a simple silhouette and rich surface texture, this early 20th century metal-cut weathervane is a charming example of American folk art. Adding a decorative touch to the topmost point of a building, weathervanes were an opportunity to tell a story and reassert a community's values. This rustic weathervane is in the form of a grazing donkey, and possibly once sat atop the barn of a prosperous farm.

Andrea Goldman | Andrea Goldman Design

“Over the years, I’ve incorporated many pieces from PAGODA RED into my designs. Not only can they balance new furnishings (and often new construction) by feeling more established, but the pieces emanate a sense of rich history, often leaving you wondering where they were in a previous life. These beautiful pieces carefully hand-selected by the team at PAGODA RED, coupled with their unbelievable customer service, make them a must-have for any home.”
