Description

69 inches tall. A decorative garden windmill featuring a four-legged open-work lattice tower constructed from dark charcoal-finished steel. The windmill head is mounted on a swivel axis and includes a ten-blade fan wheel and a directional tail vane. The vane is embellished with a laser-cut silhouette of a galloping horse and an arrow-shaped tail with stylized fletching. The horse silhouette and the structural frame exhibit a multi-tonal finish with applied copper and verdigris patination to simulate a weathered appearance. The fan blades and arrow vane feature a contrasting dark blue or black paint with intentional distressing. The tower is built from thin-gauge metal rods with horizontal and diagonal cross-bracing, terminating in four small rounded feet. No other maker marks or labels are visible on the exterior surfaces.
