Lightning rod finial
This antique lightning rod finial has the perfect balance of menace and beauty — part weapon, part weather guardian. Made of copper with a brilliant verdigris patina, its spiked crown once channeled raw electricity from stormy skies to the safety of a rooftop conductor. The twisted iron shaft below adds a sculptural, almost steampunk touch — like a medieval scepter for the gods of thunder.
