This unique tool features a **dark wood handle** and a **copper-tone shovel head**, with "Japan" engraved on the metal. The shovel extends to approximately **two feet in length** when fully extended. The shovel head has a worn copper-like color where the finish has aged, giving it a distinct, vintage patina.

The collapsible mechanism still functions well, making this not only a collectible piece but also a functional tool for outdoor or decorative use.
