At the cemetery where I serve as a guide, there are several monuments made of what was marketed as “white bronze”. It looks like pewter and is far more durable than marble. “White bronze” is just an example of 19th-century marketing. It’s not even close to bronze. It’s zinc.

That stuff is too hard to sell… Donate the kitsch to the landfill and the zinc to recycling…!
