While natural lightning is often purplish or bluish white, certain works portray types of electricity as bright yellow or vibrant blue, often as a simple zigzag shape. The yellow color is most likely used due to its association with electricity and fire in warning signs. Etymologically, the word "electric" comes from the Greek word for amber, a yellow gem that was known and used by ancient scientists for its electrostatic properties. As a personal take on this trope, this object functions as decorative light object, displaying 3 lightning bolts bursting out of a cloud.
