Occurrence of Verdigris and other patinas in the common hoplite panoply.
#10
You can find Manti's thesis on a British repository https://bookandsword.com/2014/03/07/mant...k-helmets/ and download her article on ResearchGate https://www.researchgate.net/publication...oy_Helmets

Nothing lasts forever, but if you don't neglect it, and don't overpolish it, ferrous and copper-alloy armour lasts a good long time.  Painting, tinning, and gilding can definitely reduce the maintenance further.

I have not checked this forum frequently since 2013, but I hope that these old posts have some value. I now have a blog on books, swords, and the curious things humans do with them.
