A stone so fascinating that it is difficult to express it in words.
It is as delicate as ice particles, yet exudes a lovely light.
When you hold it up to the light by a window, it sounds just like raindrops dripping down, making a soft sound.
Like Herkimer diamonds, Afghanistan crystals have a mysterious brilliance, are extremely transparent, and exude a sparkling beauty.
The medium size is the most convenient and perfect for accenting earrings and bracelets. The sparkle is large and captivating.
Many of the strings have double points, which allows for a wide variety of designs.
This time, they were able to get hold of a lot of high-quality gemstones, so they made this for us. It's a real bargain!
By the way, when I asked local people in India, they told me that the name Herkimer diamond has now become a common noun, and that diamonds from Afghanistan and Pakistan are also called Herkimer diamonds. They are recognized as a common name, like rubies and emeralds. The more you research the world of stones, the deeper it becomes.
