Yes!
It bacisally is white Goldenzelle.
The size, shape, and color pattern is all the same as the parent, but the base color went from gold to white.
still very beautiful!

Yea, I believe these blooms are a bit larger too actually. I love the original goldenzelle...but I would love to see this one crossed onto alma kee or toshi aoki or 24 karat.....

You may get lucky to come up with something really unique, but so many hybrids are similar.
A few that you named are just hard to beat I think.
They are just so so beautiful! I have seen some strains of Aoki, and oh, my, can't get better than that!!!

I know. I love yellow flowers in general, and the shape on twenty carat 'lea' is about my favorite cattleya shape along with large poofys. (is that the term??).
I still prefer the either more subtle tone of Goldenzelle "Lemon Schiffon" (the original version) or deep yellow touched with dark orange or red as in aoki. I just love that striking contrast of yellow and red.

lol we'll go ahead and let you coin that term.
Something about a nice golden/orangey/yellow/red cat with heavy substantial flowers just get me!
