    This is pretty large and heavy at about 10" tall. I can't tell what kind of metal it is because in some areas it looks like rusted iron, and others look like bronze and others like copper. Regardless, i love it!

      There's an easy way to find out which sort of metal: Determine the density. Weigh it, sink it into a waterfilled container and observe how much the water rises. Then a simple division gives you the density.
