Stephen Pinney is a world-renowned builder of marine models. Since the 1970's he has been building historically and technically accurate models.

In the late 1970's Pinney crafted several weathervanes in copper and iron during long Cape Cod winters. These weathervanes include ships, humpback whales and The Golden Cod. Pinney spent hours casting and then hand painting the elaborate details of this unique fish. Cape Cod is named after the cod fish which is found in the waters off Massachusetts and Rhode Island. 

This sculpture can be mounted as a weathervane or it can be suspended from above from two eyehooks.
