bronzeware
Copper-tin art objects
Bronzeware is objects made from bronze, especially vessels, tools, or decorative items from ancient civilizations.
The term parallels silverware and copperware, emphasizing the material rather than function: The museum's collection of Chinese bronzeware spans three dynasties.
Archaeological contexts use it to describe artifacts from the Bronze Age.
