I wish to point out the imprecision of calling a script "bronze" when in fact bronze is a medium in which characters have been cast from the mid Shang to the Han dynasty and onwards, with an incredible range of graphic structures and styles. If you are referring to bronze graphs from the Shang, please write "Shang bronze"; if Zhou, pls. consider using "Zhou bronze", or be even more specific when possible, e.g., "Early Western Zhou bronze graph". If you don't know which period it is but are referring to the one between the oracle bones and the small seal script, "Zhou bronze script" is a safe bet. Cheers!
