These weathervanes were photographed at the League of New Hampshire Craftsmen Fair at Mount Sunapee in August, 2021.
This weathervane is titled "Deer Centaur" by artisan Tom Sleeper of Belmont, New Hampshire. It measures 48" x 30" x 30" and was selling at the fair for $16,986.00. On Tom Sleeper's Facebook page you can see photos of the production of these two weathervanes:
"The Raven" was also produced by metal worker Tom Sleeper. It measures "59 x "44 x "32 and was selling for $9,114.00 at the fair in August. I don't know if either one of these three dimensional weathervanes sold or not. But they drew quite a crowd of admirers the day we were there!
