Like a perfect mushroom, this single, complete-all-around crystal just stands really elegantly and dramatically, and is one of the finer thumbnails for my taste out of hundreds I have seen and bought to get this lot picked out of. It has a somewhat deeper lemon yellow color than the larger ones here, excellent translucency, and a gorgeous luster. Better in person. A competitive example of the species, in thumbnail size!
