Herkimer Diamond Gold Ball Post Earrings

These earrings display genuine Herkimer Diamonds from New York. They sit in this unique setting made of matte, gold plated brass. The earring posts are sterling silver. These special crystals measure 14mm x 17mm. The backings for these earrings have a large, plastic disk to compensate for the size of these studs so they don't droop down while in the ear.

Herkimer Diamond: This form of quartz is a double terminated crystal, with two naturally faceted ends. It is a rarer form of crystal as it forms free-floating in pockets of clay, rather than on one side of a stone. They tend to be highly sought-after, as those who believe in the power of crystals claim that energy can flow in both directions through a double terminated crystal, and this is what makes them ideal for healing.
