beautiful ! It's such a pity that such beauty often goes unnoticed. I love the gill folds..Thanks for sharing this photo.
Maybe Laccaria amethystina? The stems of the ones I've found are usually more purple than that though
I would have thought Cortinarius violaceous, it's soooo purple.
Lovely color!
beautiful!
