About this specimen

Two glassy “Herkimer-style” quartz crystals — both doubly terminated, both water-clear — perch on a wedge of tan, druse-frosted matrix from Daocheng, Sichuan. The larger crystal carries scattered jet-black carbon inclusions that float in the clear interior like ink drops in ice, the signature look that earns these crystals their Herkimer comparison.

Daocheng’s high-altitude pockets produce China’s answer to New York’s famous diamonds: brilliant, stubby, double-pointed crystals that grew unattached and clean. Matrix pieces — crystals still seated where they formed — are much scarcer than loose singles.

It measures 8.4 × 3.6 × 5.6 cm and weighs 125 g. The photographs show the exact specimen.
