AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
A free and perfect crystal, set without altering its nature. This ring encloses an authentic Herkimer Diamond from Herkimer County, in the State of New York — renowned for its double-terminated quartz of exceptional purity. The crystal, left in its natural form, displays the two perfectly developed opposite terminations, symbolizing balance between the material world and the spiritual plane. Inside, delicate natural inclusions — tiny water bubbles, filaments, and mineral traces — tell the long geological history of the mineral, formed over 500 million years ago in the limestone cavities of Little Falls' dolostone. The handcrafted 925 silver setting follows the crystal's geometries without intruding: a solid yet minimalist structure designed to allow full light passage through the stone, revealing its adamantine transparency.
