Herkimer Quartz, also known as Herkimer Diamond, is transparent quartz crystal with brilliant sparkle. The crystal naturally forms with 18 facets, with points at both ends (double terminated). It may be completely clear and colorless or smoky, sometimes containing rainbow inclusions, air bubbles or black carbon deposits. The mineral is named for the place where it is principally found, Herkimer County, New York.
