It is celebrated for its thick, meaty ridges, excellent shell density, and deeply satisfying weight. Its most iconic feature is the \"Chrysanthemum Base\" (Ju Hua Di)—a beautiful, deeply etched radiating pattern at the bottom of the walnut that perfectly resembles a blooming chrysanthemum flower. This variety is an absolute staple for any traditional collector.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr data-path-to-node=\"10\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-path-to-node=\"11\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"11\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003e[Characteristics of SZL-407]\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli data-path-to-node=\"12,0,0\"\u003e\n\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"12,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eBalanced \u0026amp; Slightly Squat Profile:\u003c\/b\u003e Measuring a substantial 40.0mm in width and 39.0mm in height, this pair features a beautifully balanced, very slightly squatted stance.
