Did You Know?

The cast bronze necklace pendants are partially oxidized, revealing a green patina.
A cast bronze jewelry element, aged with a dark green patina, is shaped like a circular disc topped with a rectangular tab. Three concentric rings ripple around a central cone that tapers to a rounded point. Mottled brown and black spots mark the upper left, while the smooth surface shows faint scratches and minor pitting along the edges. The piece casts a dark shadow to its left against a neutral background.
