Big DOUBLE-Terminated HERKIMER, Diamond QUARTZ from Selvino, Italy
From the collection of entirely natural, museum-grade, and rare minerals: this specimen of Diamond Quartz features impressively large quartz crystals. The two Herkimer Quartz crystals are of excellent size and both are doubly terminated. One is perfect with a classic doubly terminated form, while the other shows "windows" and inclusions, often referred to as "Hopper Quartz" or "Window Quartz." Collectors know how increasingly sought after, expensive, and hard to find minerals of this type are! The uniqueness of this specimen lies in its rarity, origin, size, and crystal quality. These crystals are perfectly formed, with well-defined crystalline faces and formations. Additionally, their transparency and cool tones give the specimen elegance and refinement.
A natural marvel perfect for enhancing museum exhibitions or high-level mineral collections. Its high aesthetic value also makes it ideal for those seeking natural objects to decorate high-class spaces.
This specimen may have been repositioned but remains perfect and damage-free.
Specifications:
Formula: SiO₂
Measurements: 63 x 48 x 43 mm

Scientific Information: Diamond Quartz, also known as Herkimer Quartz (SiO₂), is renowned for its doubly terminated crystals. The unique "window" formations in one of the crystals, often referred to as Hopper Quartz, occur due to incomplete crystal growth, leaving hollow faces that create a distinctive pattern.
Photos: The proposed photos are taken in a special set with strong lighting. We strive not to alter the color of the specimens presented. However, it is recommended to keep the minerals in well-lit places to better appreciate their color.
Crystal Therapy: In crystal healing, Diamond Quartz is believed to enhance clarity of thought and spiritual insight. Its doubly terminated crystals are said to aid in energy flow and balance. Hopper Quartz, with its window-like formations, is thought to help with introspection and seeing through illusions, making it a valuable tool for self-reflection and meditation.
Shipping: Shipping is typically carried out the day after the order is placed, with tracking and careful attention to packaging. Orders from the same customer will be grouped, and any excess shipping costs will be refunded within the package or by other agreed means.
