What is bronze?

Bronze is the very first metallic alloy created by man, who took advantage of its extreme strength to make powerful tools and weapons (the Bronze Age period, from 3000 to 1000 BC).

Bronze is an alloy of several metals: copper is predominant (making up 60 to 90% of its composition) and is complemented by tin, lead, and zinc. Bronze is sometimes confused with brass. Indeed, brass is another copper alloy, but combined with zinc. 

Bronze offers good resistance to wear and corrosion, which notably explains why it has often been used to create numerous works of art such as "The Thinker" at the Rodin Museum. Designers have naturally selected it to craft their finest interior door handles!

Let us discover the latest creations in bronze: modern and original door handles designed with the world's oldest alloy!
