It's 18 inches in length and I'm not sure of what it's made of. It's very light weight. It could be even made with aluminum but hints of gold and silver depending on the way the light hits it. I'm sorry I can't be more specific. The color is very deceptive and I can't tell the difference.
Yeah, so did I. Now I wrote in one of the comments that this kind of changes it colors depending on how the light hits it. It looks silver most of the time but looks gold at times also. Hard to explain.
