BLACK BRONZE: As an alloy consisting primarily of copper, bronze starts out as reddish gold and weathers to a bluish green or brown. To become black, bronze requires human intervention; for millennia, bronze casters had applied chemicals to create a black patina over the surface of bronze statues. The monochromatic surface and size uniformity of the objects on the table elevate the mundane hammer to the level of appreciation warranted by the classical Venus de Milo.
