It has been proven in scientific studies that winners of the bronze medal in major championships are often happier than the silver medal winner. It is said to be because the person who comes second feels robbed of victory, but we believe that it is something to do with the beautiful reddish shade of the bronze medal. Our bronze surface is a brass alloy that has been dipped in an acid to prevent oxidation. It has a subdued shine with a personal appearance and darker patches that are unique to each item.
