Not A Herkimer 'Diamond'
I was very disappointed to find that this ring featured a stone that was definitely not a Herkimer Diamond. The box in which it came clearly stated that it was made in India. Herkimer Diamonds are quartz crystals from upstate New York ONLY. This ring was indeed a quartz crystal, but was mostly dark black and had a large inclusion. Herkimer Diamonds are noted for their clarity and colorless nature. That said, I will still keep the ring (which was well-made), but REALLY -- this was false advertising of the most egregious fashion.
