{"product_id":"herkimer-diamond-crystal-double-30919","title":"Herkimer Diamond 32mm — Slim Double Terminated NY Quartz","description":"\u003cp\u003eA slim, cleanly formed \u003cstrong\u003eHerkimer Diamond\u003c\/strong\u003e at 32mm tall and 6.5g, narrow through the body with well defined \u003cstrong\u003edouble terminations\u003c\/strong\u003e at each end. The clarity is graded medium, so there are natural inclusions inside, and they do something rather nice here. Instead of blazing, the crystal glows, catching light in soft internal glints rather than hard flashes. It is an easy piece to hold, pocket, or stand somewhere small.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne detail worth understanding before you buy: this listing is for the exact crystal photographed, not one like it. That matters more than it sounds, because most Herkimers at this price are sold by size grade from a batch, meaning you get something similar rather than the piece in the picture. Here, what you see is what arrives. Herkimers are traditionally associated with \u003cstrong\u003eclarity\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003efocus\u003c\/strong\u003e, and \u003cstrong\u003eamplification\u003c\/strong\u003e, working with the \u003cstrong\u003ecrown\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003ethird eye chakras\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eA closer look\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese are \u003cstrong\u003equartz\u003c\/strong\u003e, not diamond, nicknamed for their brilliance. The shape comes down to how they grew. Roughly \u003cstrong\u003e500 million years ago\u003c\/strong\u003e a shallow sea deposited the carbonate sediments that hardened into the Little Falls dolostone of upstate New York. Acidic groundwater later dissolved cavities into that rock, silica rich fluid worked its way in, and quartz crystallized inside those sealed pockets very slowly, suspended and hardly touching the walls. With no attachment point at either end, a complete termination formed on both. Ordinary quartz cannot do this, because one end is always fused to its host.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStone:\u003c\/strong\u003e Herkimer Diamond, natural double terminated quartz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eForm:\u003c\/strong\u003e Single crystal, slim elongated habit, medium clarity with natural inclusions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 18mm wide, 32mm high, 10mm deep\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 6.5g\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChakras:\u003c\/strong\u003e Crown and third eye\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNote:\u003c\/strong\u003e One of a kind, you receive the exact crystal photographed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eLiving with your Herkimer Diamond\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe narrow profile makes it comfortable held lengthwise, which suits focused intention work or simply turning something over while you think. It also stands nicely on a shelf without needing a stand. Try it somewhere the light shifts through the day so the inclusions have a chance to show off. Quartz is hard and unbothered by water, so rinse it and dry it on a soft cloth whenever it needs it. Keep it clear of harder gems, since slim crystals take knocks less kindly than stout ones.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003ePlease note: crystals are not a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.
