Diamante HERKIMER di qualità specchio ultra pulita e rara Prezzo di riserva non stabilito • 5,75 carati - Altezza: 13 mm - Larghezza: 10 mm- 1.15 g - (1)

Description:
A crystal that immediately imposes itself with an almost impossible clarity, rising from the host rock with the unmistakable architecture of a double terminated Herkimer type formation. This specimen displays a purity that is exceptionally rare in this variety, with an internal body so clean that the light travels through it without hesitation, reflecting along the sharply defined faces as if across polished glass. The transparency is mirror grade, a level of clarity normally reserved for the finest faceted gemstones, giving this crystal a brilliance that evokes the appearance of a cut diamond rather than a raw quartz formation.

The internal structure is strikingly open and unclouded. There are no internal inclusions interrupting the flow of light, a feature that dramatically elevates its rarity and desirability among collectors. Only a few natural external micro features mark the surface, confirming its unaltered geological integrity while preserving the exceptional purity of the interior. Both terminations are crisp and well developed, displaying the aesthetic symmetry that collectors of high quality crystals seek.

This is a crystal selected for its luminous character, its architectural sharpness and its remarkable internal perfection. The balance between form and translucency gives it a presence worthy of advanced collections, standing out as a piece that honours the highest standards of natural aesthetics.
