Today we know it by Oscars ....

The official name of the Oscar statuette is the Academy Award of Merit.

Made of gold-plated britannium on a black metal base, it is 13.5 inches (34 cm) in length and weighs 8.5 lb (3.85 kg).

It depicts a knight rendered in Art Deco style holding a crusader's sword standing on a reel of film with five spokes.

The five spokes each represent the original branches of the Academy: Actors, Writers, Directors, Producers, and Technicians.
