“Herkimer Diamonds” are double-terminated quartz crystals with high brilliance, clarity, and surface luster giving them the appearance of a real diamond. The name comes from the original collecting in Herkimer County, New York and their exceptional crystal brilliance. They are typically found in small pockets of dolomite limestone rock.

These Herkimer Diamonds average approximately 1.5"-2" in diameter.  They have clear depth to them, but all have growth fractures, which give them interesting character, even rainbows in some.  Some also have other mineral inclusions.
