Description from the seller
The Herkimer Diamond is not a diamond but an exceptionally pure and transparent crystalline quartz, known for its higher hardness compared to other quartz. It formed approximately 500 million years ago within dolomitic cavities of the Little Falls geological formation, dating back to the Cambrian-Ordovician period. These crystals are distinguished by their natural bipyramidal structure, a feature that makes them unique among quartz varieties. Visible inclusions can be gas bubbles, hydrocarbons, or even microscopic crystals of black carbon, giving them a mystical and fascinating appearance. Considered an energy amplifier, the Herkimer Diamond is a highly vibrant stone associated with mental clarity, spiritual connection, and aura purification. It is used in meditation to strengthen intuition and promote astral travel. Thanks to its high transparency and play of reflections, it is often called 'the crystal of light' and is appreciated not only in jewelry but also in the field of crystal therapy. This pendant features an authentic Herkimer Diamond selected for its purity and beauty, set in an elegant 925 silver mount that enhances its natural brilliance. The irregular cut and handcrafted workmanship respect the crystal's natural shape, making it a unique and unrepeatable piece. A perfect jewel for collectors, mineral lovers, and those seeking a talisman of light and purity.
