Short story

Discovered in Herkimer County, New York, USA, this exceptional quartz has been dubbed “Herkimer Diamond” because of its diamond-like brilliance and clarity. These crystals formed approximately 500 million years ago in cavities in dolomite rocks. As early as the 18th century, locals and settlers were collecting them and using them as lucky charms. Today, they remain highly sought after for their natural beauty and high vibrational energy.
