- Important things to note -

● Please note that our stones come from Pakistan, so many call them “Pakimer diamonds” rather than “Herkimer diamonds”

● Herkimer Diamonds and Pakimer Diamonds are 18 sided quartz crystals, not actual diamonds.

● Please understand that these are natural stones and may have slight imperfections, such as inclusions or imperfect clarity. If you are particular about what you'd like to receive, please message me with your request first.

- About the stone -

Double terminated 18 faceted quartz crystals were found in Herkimer NY in the 18th century and because of their clean natural facets and high clarity they were given the name "Herkimer Diamonds". Now similar beautiful 18 faceted crystals have been found in many places around the world. Technically only the stones found in a certain region of NY can properly bear the name "Herkimer Diamond" (just like the use of the word "Champagne" is reserved in many countries only for sparkling wine from the Champagne region of France).

- About the metal -

14k Gold filled:

What is "Gold Filled"? Well it is a way to get the benefits of gold without the huge cost. Think of it as a heavy 14K Gold plating (5% of the metal by weight). This protects your jewelry from tarnishing, and allows your ears to just contact 14K Gold.

- Before you buy -

Please be sure the jewelry you buy is made of a metal that is safe for you! Every person is different and it’s ultimately up to you to know how your body reacts to different metals.

- Caring For Your Jewelry -
