Natural Herkimer Diamond Orbit Pendant in 925 Sterling Silver
This contemporary pendant showcases a natural Herkimer Diamond suspended within a sleek, open oval, creating the illusion that the crystal is floating. The clean, modern design lets one of nature's most remarkable quartz crystals take center stage.
Despite their name, Herkimer Diamonds are not diamonds. They are exceptionally clear, naturally double-terminated quartz crystals found primarily in Herkimer County, New York. Formed nearly 500 million years ago inside cavities within ancient dolostone, these crystals had the rare opportunity to grow freely, developing naturally pointed ends without ever being cut or polished.
Ben has always appreciated Herkimer Diamonds because they demonstrate what nature can create on its own. Their exceptional clarity and brilliance come from millions of years of natural crystal growth, not from a jeweler's polishing wheel.
Handcrafted in 925 sterling silver, this elegant pendant pairs modern craftsmanship with one of Earth's most fascinating natural crystals.
