Bronze is a dark metallic brown color with hints of orange or red. The color is symbolic of resilience, drive, perseverance, and motivation.

The history of bronze goes back to 3300 BCE. The Bronze Age was a time of great societal changes. Wheels, plows, axes, swords, and a new writing system were all invented at this time. All this hard work has given bronze the symbolism of strength and determination.
