They are from Herkimer County New York and have the raw appearance of diamonds, hence the name. Herkimer diamonds are a wonderful, inexpensive naturally occurring conflict free alternative to traditional diamonds. They are truly hard to distinguish from a diamond as they are very hard, durable and will therefore give you and yours a lifetime of enjoyment! As is the case for any natural crystal a coincidence of appropriate condition is responsible for the growth of Herkimer diamonds. First of all, the environment must provide a crucible for the crystals to form in. In addition, the elements for the crystal’s formation must be present and in a state of free dissociation. Like common table salt in water the constituent elements must be moving freely within the crucible. Conditions must then occur which allow these elements to come back together in a regular geometric pattern. Electrostatic forces at the atomic level create this pattern. Atoms in this state act like little magnets and, like the north and south poles in magnets, they can only attach to each other in ways that are specifically dictated by these forces. It is as a result of these forces Herkimer diamonds have their beautiful geometry. The host rock for Herkimer diamonds is the Cambrian-age, Little Falls Dolostone. Little Falls Dolostone is about 500 million years old. Herkimer Diamonds form in the cavities within the dolostone. These cavities frequently contain drusy quartz crystals and often have a coating of tarry hydrocarbon. Healing Proprieties of Herkimer Diamonds Herkimer diamonds are ascension stones. They will take you to the highest spiritual vibration possible while still being in your physical body. These crystals have powerful metaphysical properties and are therefore strong stones to aid astral travel. They help to connect the astral plane to the physical plane. Herkimer diamonds are beautiful and powerful high vibration crystals that boost clairvoyant abilities.
