decorative top for cone shaped roof

| Posted in General Discussion on

*
I am building a house with a cone shaped roof over a circular porch. I am looking for a decorative top that is not made of wood for the point of the roof . The owner does not want a weathervane. Any suggested vendors or ideas would be appreciated.
