                  Length: 5 inches total 
                  Composition: 12 karat gold filled wire, green niobium 
                    wire, purple niobium coils, stainless steel scalpel blades

                  Comments: This combination of gold wire and green 
                    is truly striking, especially with those violet eyes. The 
                    detail on the back 
                    of the torso reminds me of a cobra's markings.
