Ten Reasons Why I Love our Copper & Brass Lanterns



I like to think we are different kind of retailer. We care about the products that we carry and do a lot of research and consideration before bringing a product line on board. When possible we visit and tour where they are made. This gives us better insight into the products we represent.  We have discontinued products that we thought of low quality or manufactures that were unable to offer the proper support and customer service. 

That being said - I want to give you the reasons why I absolutely love the line of copper & brass lanterns available at the Cape Cod Weathervane Company 

1) Made in the USA

2)  Underwriters Laboratories (UL) tested and approved. 

3) We are able (and willing) to customize and modify most models. 

4) Hand Blown Glass

5) Thicker & more durable glass than any mass produced lighting line 

6) Timeless design that never go out of style

7)  Ease of changing light bulbs (thumb screws allow the entire cage to be removed from the             onion lantern) 

8)  Wash your Onion globe in the dishwasher (by the same folks who created #7)

9)  Copper or Brass + 5 finishes + four glass options = endless possibilities 

10) Lifetime Warranty !!

The Ultimate Wedding Gift


Heading to a wedding this summer ? Undecided on what to get ? Want to get something unique, but not something that will get packed away in the cellar with all that other "neat stuff"

Consider one of our wedding house plaques.

It's one of our more popular items and we get more people who comment on what a big hit the address plaque gift was. Keep in mind that these plaques are made to order and cast in a foundry in Michigan. Allow for 4-5 weeks for your order to arrive.
