Ourย Bronze Vintage Religious Jewelry collection features medals, rosary parts, rings, bracelets, and more. Bronzeย is a durable metal alloy traditionally made primarily of copper, usually with tin and sometimes small amounts of other metals. Bronze has been used for centuries in statues, medals, bells, and devotional objects because it is strong, attractive, and develops a classic warm brown tone over time. Bronze medals may naturally darken or develop a patina with age, which many people find adds to their beauty and character.
