Materials & Craftsmanship

Natural Herkimer diamond quartz crystals with black carbon inclusions are set in sterling silver posts with butterfly backs.

Handcrafted exclusively for Dakota Nature in the USA.

Herkimer diamonds are not true diamonds but exceptionally clear, naturally double-terminated quartz crystals found only in Herkimer County, New York. The black carbon inclusions—sometimes called tourmalinated or carbonaceous inclusions—are ancient organic material trapped during the crystal's formation over 500 million years ago. Each inclusion pattern is unique, making these earrings truly unrepeatable.
