What is Bronzing? Bronzing is a process in which an item is encased in a layer of pure copper. The copper is first oxidized and then polished to achieve a lustrous shine thus creating a lasting and memorable keepsake. We really electroplate your keepsake, we don't paint them or metalize them in bronze-colored powder.
