This piece of natural Herkimer quartz, originally from Pakistan, impresses with its grey colour and specific inclusions. The crystal measures 15.90x9.50x6.70 mm and weighs 6.20 carats. Being untreated and unworked, it retains the natural shape and rough characteristics of Herkimer quartz, making it ideal for collectors who value authenticity. This rough stone is perfect for use in custom jewelry creations, adding a distinctive and natural element. It is also valued for its supposed metaphysical properties, making it valuable in collections or as a decorative element.
Herkimer quartz, also known as "Herkimer diamonds," is a clear, double-finished form of crystalline quartz found in dolomite deposits near Herkimer, New York, from which it got its name. These crystals are prized for their exceptional clarity and their natural, double-terminated shapes, which are very similar to diamond shapes.
Because of their high hardness and attractive appearance, Herkimer diamonds are often used in jewelry as a more affordable alternative to traditional diamonds. However, they are softer than real diamonds, with a hardness of 7.5 on the Mohs scale (compared to 10 for diamonds). Herkimer quartz is considered by many to have metaphysical properties, including the ability to amplify spiritual energy and promote mental clarity.
