Signed 19th Century
Dexter Horse and Rider weathervane. Made by Harris & Co.,
Boston, Mass. c1885. This highly detailed example is over 125 years
old and over those years developed a true and honest color, patina
and surface which collectors find very desirable and quite
appealing. There are a few historic bullet holes filled and some
resoldering along a few of its seams, but in the overall picture it
remains today in very good condition. The stamped signature can be
found just below the rider's saddle and reads Harris Co. Size: 26 x
20.5 x 5
Custom metal stand included.
