pea-sized
About marble diameter
Pea-sized describes something roughly the diameter of a pea—small enough to pinch between thumb and forefinger.
It's a common measurement in medical and cooking contexts: The doctor found a pea-sized lump; Roll the dough into pea-sized balls.
The term emphasizes smallness while still being visible and tangible, unlike grain-sized or microscopic.
