Victorian 50 degree fleur finial install

We received a request from a customer to advise on a suitable replacement roof finial to replace their broken finial. The customer lives in a road where all properties have the same or similar looking finials and she was able to send us a picture of their neighbours finial

The below pictures show the fleur de lys finial installed on the roof and it is very similar to the original finial that was on the roof before. The customer was delighted with the finish:
