Metaphysical Magic: Herkimer Diamonds Cradled in Modern Arches

When is a diamond not a diamond? When it is a Herkimer Diamond, a diamond-like type of reputed energy-amplifying quartz with a double-terminated configuration. Bearing a diamond-like appearance and reputed to have healing qualities, the gorgeous quartz crystal Herkimer Diamond is mined in Herkimer, New York, thus the name!

I’m thrilled with my Herkimer Diamond earrings! Set in sterling silver or golden arches, Lotus Stone Jewelry’s boho-fabulous earrings sparkle with multiple Herkimer quartz stones. I’m pleased to report that Lotus Stone Jewelry delivered the most crystal-clear Herkimer Diamond jewelry I’ve ever possessed.

Allow me to explain. At times, Herkimer Diamonds  have streaks of black or black spots running through them due to anthraxolite, a substance resembling black coal. The black marked Herkimer Diamonds can look quite distinctive and striking but those stones aren’t typically as sparkling and diamond-like in appearance as are the clear Herkimer Diamonds set in Lotus Stone Jewelry’s earrings.

Reputed to possess high levels of vibrational energy, Herkimer Diamond earrings are the perfect earring for crystal lovers and seekers of meaningful, mystical jewelry.  They are also a great gift to give or receive.
