Description
A fine powder of metallic alloys of bronze (copper-zinc) or brass (copper-tin). Bronze powder was used as a pigment in lacquers and varnishes to produce bronzing liquid or a gold tinted paint. Bronze powder is not considered a permanent pigment (Mayer 1969). It produces a dull, grainy paint that discolors with time.
