Introduction

These Double-Terminated Quartz “Herkimer Style” Bracelets capture the look and brilliance of the world-famous Herkimer Diamonds of New York. Each bead is precision-polished to reveal its natural transparency and internal inclusions, giving it the luminous clarity and sparkle that collectors prize. Though sourced from China, these quartz crystals share the same optical structure and natural purity that made Herkimer quartz a legend among mineral enthusiasts.

Geological Details

Double-terminated quartz crystals form when silica-rich solutions crystallize freely in open cavities, allowing points to develop at both ends. The quartz used in these bracelets belongs to the silicate mineral class and crystallizes in the trigonal system. Minute inclusions of carbon and hematite create the subtle black and silvery tones visible within each bead, enhancing both contrast and authenticity. No dyes, coatings, or glass substitutes are used — each piece is 100 % natural quartz.

Aesthetic Appeal

Every bracelet features beads that gleam with a crisp, water-clear brilliance, punctuated by wisps of smoky grey or black anthraxolite. The result is a refined monochrome palette — elegant, modern, and endlessly versatile. The smaller 6 mm size offers a delicate, minimalist profile, while the 7 mm provides a touch more substance and presence.

Metaphysical Properties

Quartz has long been celebrated as a master healer — a stone of clarity, focus, and amplification. The double-terminated form is believed to transmit and balance energy in both directions, making it ideal for meditation and energy work. Often called “the dream stone,” Herkimer-style quartz is associated with clear vision, heightened awareness, and spiritual attunement.

Legacy Note on Origin

True Herkimer Diamonds are mined in Herkimer County, New York. These bracelets feature Herkimer-style quartz sourced from China — geologically similar and naturally double-terminated, offering the same clarity and sparkle at an accessible price point. Each piece is genuine quartz, not synthetic or imitation glass.
