This combination of octahedral crystals, hoppered octahedrons, and massive gold create a wonderful and aesthetic "tree' of gold. For sheer brilliance, this thumbnail is hard to beat. It is incredibly sculptural and look slike it is about to walk away. Somebody here compared it to the Ents of the Lord of the Rings movies....it just really has a zing to it that is hard to convey in pics. It is hefty, and extremely showy for the size!
