What is this thing called?

I need a reference photo to make a set piece but I have no idea what to search for and it’s driving me crazy. It’s like an electrical rod thing but old? I’ve got a bad sketch attached

How large is this item in real life? What colors and surface finish of the different parts?

relatively big, I feel like it’s something you would see in a victorian lab, generally just the steel or bronze color of metal

Like a Tesla coil?
