Verdigris is a green or bluish-green coating that forms like rust on brass, bronze, or copper. It is caused by a chemical reaction when these metals have been exposed to acidic elements over time.

Verdigris is formed by the reaction of copper with elements in the air, such as oxygen, carbon dioxide, and water. This chemical reaction causes the copper to form a greenish-blue patina on its surface, giving it the characteristic color of verdigris.
