	Weather Vanes
	Weather vanes were used in seventeenth-century Boston. The direction of the wind was an indication of coming weather, important to the seafaring and farming communities. By the mid-nineteenth century, commercial weather vanes were made of metal. Today’s collectors often consider weather vanes to be examples of folk art, even though they may not have been handmade.
