Material: Copper, iron armature and lead; magnificent and correct verdigris, great patina

Additional Information: We have not seen this form in print or in person before, likely
unique. The planished sails, masts, and hull were fabricated using two copper sheets
each side, on a wrought iron armature then filled with lead. The sails, seemingly
capturing wind, and hull are tapered. This sculptural vane is displayed on a custom
fabricated iron stand.
