Patination of bronze

The final process in the creation of bronze is the patina or finish that is applied to the surface of the bronze.

A wide variety of finishes can be achieved by heating the metal with a torch and applying different acids and chemicals to the hot surface.

The resulting colour depends on which chemicals are applied.
