Hello erilkhan,That is a very fine blade but I think the metals are base metals except for the plating.I think you may be looking at various mixtures of Tin and Copper which can produce a range of colours,white to yellow of a hardness suitable for sword furniture.I have post a picture of white metal modern Tuereg bangles that look like silver.Tim
