I regret that this didn't stay in better condition but the tornado that came through town brought winds that sent this into a strange shape. I hammered it back into shape but it loosened welded joints and they keep coming apart. I would repaint it but it looks better natural since it is in such bad shape. It was inherited from my wife's Aunt Irene's home. I am glad we have it.

If this is an important thig to you you must repair and repaint.
Weather-weathered rather than time weathered. I agree, leave it just as it is.
I think it has great character, Larry.
Yes, DON'T paint it...it will ruin the weathered (literally!~) look!
I would have it fixed. It is fabulous.
