Paul, the Greek bronze could be "goldish" in colour in some "production zones". Naxian copper smiths made use of the arsenic (Ar) of Kythnos.
Some museum samples were analysed by the University of Athens.
See our artisitc reconstruction in the Greek Artwork thread.
We can hardly speak about "bronze colour uniformity".
Kind regards
