Item Description

These specimens are truly some of the most easily recognizable examples of Quartz in the world for their form and sheer clarity. Commonly referred to as "Herkimer Diamonds", but mindat.org defines them simply as "Herkimer-Style" Quartz. This piece features a pair of WATER-CLEAR, sharp, highly lustrous, doubly-terminated "stubby" crystals with absolute colorless purity. There are a few tiny imperfections, so the piece is not 100% perfect, but still good quality overall.
