Herkimer Diamond Sterling Silver Wave Ring
Gemstone ring features a Herkimer Diamond with 925 sterling silver wave style band. The clever adjustable feature allows this ring will fit sizes M-O (UK) and 6¼-7¼ (US) due to the open design of the band. Gemstone measures approximately 6x4mm. Comes presented in a Two Skies jewellery box with story card, ready for gifting.
RESIZING ADJUSTABLE RINGS
It is quite easy to change the size of the ring yourself as long as you go slowly and are careful, manipulating the inner area of the band with warm fingers, rather than pulling at the end sections – this will help keep a round shape too. This ring will span quite a few sizes without compromising the original design concept. Once set, it is advisable not to resize again, as silver is quite soft and can become brittle and snap if bent too frequently.
As setting adjustable rings can sometimes be a delicate procedure, we are more than happy to set the size for you (please check description for size range) before we send it out to you - just let us know in the 'message to seller' field at checkout.
Herkimer quartz "diamonds" are rare, naturally formed and faceted crystals of exceptional clarity, originally discovered in Herkimer county, upstate New York - hence the name! They are named after diamonds not only because of their sparkling clarity, but the naturally formed double termination (pointed ends) and 18 sided facet. Like diamonds, they are extremely rare and difficult to find! Our current stock of Herks were mined at a new location in Afghanistan. Although not from Herkimer, New York, these “diamonds” display the same unique double terminated formation and same beautiful clarity. They are also known in the jewellery trade as “Afghan Herks”. Some Herkimers may have subtle, natural inclusions, such as water or plant inclusions which are extremely rare and demonstrate the stone's natural formation. Stones of attunement, they are said to relieve tensions and heal addictions.
