HERKIMER DIAMONDS FOR SALE
Herkimer diamonds are not actual diamonds, but rather double-terminated quartz crystals found in and around Herkimer County, NY. The diamond in the name comes from not only their exceptional clarity but also because they are often naturally faceted when found! Only these crystals found in Herkimer County, New York can be called Herkimer diamonds. Similar double-terminated quartz crystals have also been found in abundance in Tibet and Afghanistan, but these are not true Herkimer diamonds.
