Antique Bronze Price

Antique bronze is found as an antique metal in old bronze statues, old bronze church bells, old bronze ship propellers, old bronze couplings, old bronze faucets, and bronze decorative items. Bronze was widely used by people, especially in ancient times, as a utilitarian material but also certainly as a decorative element. Bronze weathers or oxidizes over time and develops a green patina. This can sometimes make it quite difficult to distinguish from old brass. Therefore, if in doubt, use a file or an angle grinder to remove the layer of oxidation; bronze will often have a reddish-brown color, whilebrassoryellow copper will have a true yellow color.

Why recycle old bronze?

Recycling old bronze has many benefits, both for the environment and for your wallet. Bronze is a sustainable material that can be reused indefinitely without losing any of its quality. By turning in your old bronze for recycling, you help reduce the demand for new raw materials and contribute to the conservation of natural resources. You also help reduce CO₂ emissions. After all, remelting old bronze requires far less energy than extracting and processing new metals. This is a simple way to reduce your ecological footprint. And, of course, recycling makes financial sense. Bronze has a high residual value, so you can get a good price for it. At Krommenhoek Metals, we offer transparent prices for your scrap metal.  

How is the price of antique bronze determined?

The price of scrap bronze is influenced by several factors. One of the most important factors is the quality of the bronze. Clean bronze free of contaminants, such as paint or other metals, generally fetches a higher price than contaminated bronze. Weight also plays a major role; the greater the quantity, the higher the return.

In addition, current market prices are an important indicator. Global supply and demand for raw materials, such as copper and tin (the main components of bronze), directly influence the price of antique bronze. These prices can fluctuate daily and are influenced by economic trends, industrial production, and international trade.

At Krommenhoek Metals, we ensure that our prices are always transparent and in line with market rates. This way, you’ll get the best price for your scrap bronze, with no hidden fees.
