bronze work

Alloy art pieces

Bronze work is the craft of creating objects from bronze—an alloy of copper and tin—through casting, sculpting, or other metalworking techniques.

The term covers both the process and its products: decorative sculptures, architectural elements, bells, and functional items.

The museum's collection of ancient bronze work includes weapons and ritual vessels.
