What care instructions should be followed for this brooch made of genuine bronze in order to protect the material from tarnishing in the long term and to preserve its golden shine?

To preserve the golden luster of the bronze brooch in the long term, it should be regularly wiped with a soft, dry cloth to remove skin oils and dirt. For heavier tarnishing, cleaning with a special metal polish for bronze or soaking in a mild citric acid solution is suitable, after which the piece must be thoroughly dried. Storing it in a dry place, such as a jewelry box or an airtight bag, minimizes contact with humidity and sulfur compounds, which further slows down oxidation.
